I found a hidden treasure trove today. Aaron and I went to a site this afternoon, where I was told a Barracuda was seen lurking in the brush. Sure enough, we found it, as well as four Dusters, a Dart 440, a Volare, a Valiant, and some other unidentified Dodge.

I'll post pics tomorrow, because I need some help identifying some of those I'm not familiar with. One of them was a Gold Duster. So, what does that mean? What makes them special or different from standard Dusters?

Options depended on the 'year':

The mid year 1970 model was:
225 or 318
Dual Horns
White sidewall tires
deluxe wheel covers
front bucket seats
cigarette lighter
chrome exterior trim
Gold tape stripes


Not long after that:
Canopy Vinyl top with snakeskin texture
'Gold Duster' fender decals
Gold body stripes
wider wheels
special interior trim (some later years would have the woodgrain 1975-1976 'deluxe' door panels instead of the plain one color panels like the '73-74's)...

On the late ones(post '73), I've seen them with everything from disc brake fronts, to 9" SBP drums...so do some crawling to see if any are optioned with the 8 1/4"(8 3/4") you want to grab...
