Stunning 1973 Plymouth Duster 340 Lives Again Restored By V8 Speed and Resto Shop - https://www.v8speedshop.com Witness the dramatic transformation of a worn-out 1973 Plymouth Duster 340 into a show-stopper! In this video, we share the meticulous restoration process at V8 Speed & Resto Shop, where our mission was clear: elevate this classic Duster beyond its original glory while preserving its iconic spirit. More Than Just a Restoration: A Vision Realized. Our client entrusted us with his beloved, yet worn-out, Duster, seeking not just a repair, but a revival. We understand that every restoration is unique, and we pride ourselves on collaborating closely with our clients to bring their visions to life. Whether it's a faithful stock restoration or a radical custom build, our team is equipped to exceed expectations. The V8 Speed & Resto Shop Process: From Vision to Victory. It begins with understanding your dream. Is it cruising down country roads, dominating the drag strip, or winning prestigious shows? We believe in visualizing your "best day" with your car to guide our process. DUSTER BUILD PHOTOS: https://v8speedshop.com/73Duster Step 1: Disassembly and Documentation. We meticulously documented every detail of the Duster's condition upon arrival, capturing thousands of photographs and precise measurements using digital calipers. This ensured we understood the original factory specifications and identified areas for improvement. Step 2: Bodywork and Metal Fabrication. The Duster's unibody construction demanded precision. We media-blasted the body, mounted it to a custom jig, and meticulously repaired rust damage, including the floors and quarter panels. Leveraging original collision repair data, we ensured the body was perfectly square and true. Our expert fabricators skillfully addressed the challenges of fitting reproduction panels, achieving panel gaps superior to the factory standards. Step 3: Paint and Finish. The original medium blue metallic was reimagined into a custom hue inspired by a Range Rover blue, infused with pearl and other proprietary techniques. This unique color, expertly applied by our painter, Jeff, radiates brilliance, especially when paired with the fresh chrome trim and white interior. Step 4: Powertrain Enhancement. The factory 340 engine, originally rated at 240 horsepower, received a significant performance upgrade. We installed a Comp Cams hydraulic roller camshaft, Edelbrock aluminum heads and intake manifold, a larger carburetor, MSD ignition, and a MagnaFlow 2.5-inch stainless steel mandrel-bent exhaust system. Step 5: Chassis and Suspension Overhaul. We applied a durable bedliner coating for protection and ease of cleaning. All suspension components, including brakes, ball joints, bushings, and sway bar end links, were rebuilt or replaced. The rear axle was rebuilt with a new gear set, clutch, and limited-slip differential. This comprehensive overhaul ensures a smooth, precise, and enjoyable ride, maintaining the classic Duster feel with improved performance. Step 6: Interior Transformation. The original bucket seats were stripped, recovered in bright white, and paired with matching door and side panels. Step 7: Final Touches and Detailing. The finishing touches included the iconic white 340 stripes, the rear graphic decal, and a set of meticulously restored Plymouth Rally wheels. The precision of the decal placement and the overall fit and finish highlight the attention to detail that defines our work. Why Choose V8 Speed & Resto Shop?
