Hello,
Tag says its a 1975 model. Was originally built with the 225 Slant six engine and was built at the St. Louis, Missouri production plant. Can you post some pictures? Would be interesting to see your project car. Sure has travelled a good distance from where it was built.

Welcome on the board! I am pretty sure you are our first Pakistani member.
Here is how your car decodes:

V = Plymouth Valiant / Duster model range
H = High trim/price class
29 = 2-door fastback
C = 225 cubic inch (3.7 litre) 105 horsepower 1v 6-cylinder engine
5 = 1975 model year
G = built at St. Louis, Missouri, USA
124220 = vehicle serial number
E24 = 225 cubic inch (3.7 litre) 6-cylinder engine, 1v carburetor
D34 = A904 TorqueFlite 3-speed automatic transmission
EW1 = Body paint code: "Spinnaker White", PPG 2033
C6XW = Interior trim, black vinyl bucket seats
000 = Upper door frame treatment: Full door trim panel
A09 = Built on 9 October 1974
208978 = Vehicle order number
V4X = Canopy-type vinyl half roof cover, black
U = Built to USA market specifications
AG4 is actually A64 Gold Duster trim package
A91 = Quiet Car package (undercoating, underhood pad, carpet pad, exhaust resonator, other insulation/quieting features)
C56 = bucket seats
C73 = "Spacemaker" fold-down rear seatback
G51 = Driver sideview mirror, round chrome remote control
L31 = Fender-top turn signal repeaters
L37 = ??? Something lighting-related; looking into it
M21 = Roof drip rail reveal mouldings
M25 = Wide sill mouldings
M26 = Wheelwell lip mouldings
M38 = Deck lid panel finish mouldings
N37 = Unleaded fuel package with catalytic converter
N95 = Nox Exhaust Emission Control
R11 = Radio, MusicMaster AM 2-watt
KGX is actually K6X Body side moulding, wide, black
A3 = ???

This is a really well equipped car. It was originally built for the USA market. The catalytic converter is almost certainly gone; I don't think Pakistan had unleaded petrol available until about 2000, maybe a little later than that.

Good catch; I had a few books open when I was doing this tag and I looked at the '71 book by mistake.

If you have a photobucket account, host it there, then paste the links into your message.

I don't do Facebook or any of the social networking type sites, but I'm sure somebody can post a photo up for you that goes to those sites.

Welcome to slantsix dot org! :D

I wonder if Chuck can drum up a Pakistan flag for you?

Interesting, is your speedometer in MPH or KM/H? Sounds almost as if somebody bought a car in the states and had it shipped over there.

Very nice car though, paint and body looks great. It must be a pain getting parts over there though.
