Plymouth made some fantastic vehicles in the ’60s and '70s, capitalizing on the muscle car craze with tenacity. The Duster was one of their compact car offerings, a two-door coupe variant of their Valiant nameplate. Produced between 1969 and 1976, it offered a range of in-line six and V8 powerplants. This meant that buyers could opt for fuel economy or sheer performance. Up for sale today is a fully restored 1973 Plymouth Duster with a rebuilt V8, and all maintenance is reportedly up to date. So, if you’re searching for a great American classic car to add to your collection or start building a collection with, this car is an ideal candidate either way.
Wearing an attractive black and red paint theme, this 1973 Plymouth Duster oozes charm and attitude from every angle. The reflective stripes and original Rallye wheels with new tires contribute further to this image, while the prominent hood scoop isn’t just for show either. Chrome bumpers, a rear spoiler, and a sleek side profile cap off this car’s outward persona. Now let’s check out the interior, which continues the red and black theme. Here, you’ll find leather-upholstered seating for four adults and largely original-style fittings, including the dashboard and door cards. There’s an aftermarket tachometer and some auxiliary gauges that have been added, but done so in a way to not disrupt the classic vibes of the dashboard. You’ve also got a newer Sony radio cassette player, once again integrated into the dashboard in a seamless fashion. Pop the trunk, and it’s a similarly clean and neat affair. It’s clear that a lot of effort went into the restoration.
There’s a 360ci V8 under the hood of this 1973 Plymouth Duster, pumping power to the rear wheels through an automatic gearbox. Since this engine came for the 1974 model year, we’d hazard a guess that an engine swap has been done. The factory horsepower figure for the 360 is 245hp, which is excellent given that 1973 was when the Malaise Era truly took hold. The car also sports disc brakes and a new exhaust system for a cleaner V8 roar.

One of the Sport Compacts from the Seventies, the Plymouth Duster was produced between 1970 and 1976, as a stylish two-door coupe with a compact footprint and naturally, V8 power on offer. However, the potential of this car was somewhat stymied by the onset of the Malaise Era, and the Duster would go the way of the dodo, being replaced by the Dodge Aspen/Plymouth Volare combo. Today, we have a 1973 Plymouth Duster for sale from Lafayette, Tennessee, with just under 78,000 miles to its name. This originally 340ci car has received a previously rebuilt engine with a little more displacement for some extra fun.

Do you want a muscle car experience in a compact car body? That’s what Plymouth aimed to provide, with the Duster. Made between 1969 and 1976, the Duster was their two-door coupe in the compact car segment. However, Plymouth still endowed it with V8s of varying capacities, ensuring that buyers didn’t get the typically pedestrian performance that came with compact cars. If you’re interested in getting your hands on a Duster, check out this 1970 Plymouth Duster Restomod that’s for sale right now. The car has been completely restored and rocks some neat modern features.
Automakers don’t do silly things anymore. Like, say, create a muscle car and name it after a beloved cartoon character. Or spend a significant sum of money to buy the naming rights from the intellectual property holder of said character. Or spend even more money after that to develop a horn that sounds just like that character’s jaunty cry. That’s what Plymouth did in the Sixties, with the Road Runner. They paid Warner Brothers US$50,000 to license their Road Runner character’s name and likeness. Then, they spent a further $10,000 to develop a horn that said “Beep Beep” just like the character did on screen. Was it a success? You bet! In fact, if not for the Malaise Era’s impending arrival and renewed focus on fuel economy and emissions, the Road Runner might have run a little bit longer than 1980. Today, we have a 1968 Plymouth Road Runner for sale from Jacksonville, Florida. With a nice 383ci V8, an automatic gearbox and an aftermarket head unit from Pioneer, this 42,228-mile machine is a fine catch for a savvy collector of American classics – or someone who wants to start a collection.
Beep Beep! Move over, it’s the Road Runner! Named after the lovable Warner Brothers character from the Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner cartoons, Plymouth reportedly paid $50,000 to Warner Brothers for the right to use the Road Runner name and likeness. They spent a further $10,000 on development of a signature “Beep Beep” horn as well! Needless to say, the Road Runner was a massive success and remains one of America’s most loved muscle cars to this day. Now, we have a chance for one lucky enthusiast to get their hands on a massively upgraded 1970 Plymouth Road Runner Restomod from Milford, Pennsylvania. With its 440ci V8, Tremec TK500 5-speed manual transmission and Holley Six Pack Tri-Power system, this is one speedy car!
One of those historically significant automotive names, Plymouth was not only named after the famous rock, but also a brand of binder’s twine. Sadly this marque is no more, but they gave us some epic models such as the Roadrunner, Fury, Barracuda and more. Today, we have something a bit older, something from their 1940s collection. This 1950 Plymouth P20 Special Deluxe Convertible Restomod is part of the Plymouth De Luxe line that ran between 1933 and 1942, and again from 1946 to 1950. These full-sized cars came in various body styles, and this particular 40,928-mile machine is a lovely drop-top. It’s got a beige electrically operated convertible top, a newer 350ci V8, an automatic gearbox and more things to make every drive even sweeter.
Ford’s Torino is a midsize car that was sold between 1968 and 1976. It also dabbled in the muscle car segment, with a prime example being this first-generation 1969 Ford Torino Cobra Jet. For buyers who wanted something tamer, there was a host of straight six or V8 powerplants, but the ultimate was the massive 428ci Cobra Jet V8. That’s what this Thousand Palms-based car offers, along with a Marti Report and just 21,000 miles on the clock. In fact, 1969 Cobras like this one are quite desirable due to their rarity since many Torino’s didn’t survive due to a variety of reasons. Perhaps they weren’t quite seen as preservation candidates way back then. Now, a car like this one isn’t a common occurrence, so if you wish to own this Cobra, contact us right now.
Chevy’s second-generation or C2 Corvette has got to be the one with the shortest production run! It was made between 1963 and 1967, and just under 118,000 units were produced during this time. However, the C2 brought us many Corvette features such as pop-up headlamps, only V8s under the hood, and the Sting Ray badge. That’s why getting your hands on a C2 is a smart idea, albeit not one of the easiest. Happily, we have this 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Convertible for sale from Newtown, Pennsylvania. The car has just 5,764 miles on it and looks fabulous!
Falcon is one of Ford’s best-known nameplates, because its been used for cars in North America, Australia and Argentina. Today’s 1964 Ford Falcon Sprint Convertible comes from the North American line-up and is a second-generation example. With a healthy 119,104 miles on the clock, this fine Ford hails from Chula Vista, California and is a nice, sunny drop-top too. It’s got a 289 paired with a four-speeder, and some fetching aftermarket wheels as well. And that’s before we get to its rather nautical color! In short, this is the perfect first classic for someone looking to try out the American cars of the Sixties, but if you need more convincing before calling us, read on.
