Factory Stock 318 V8, Automatic, Bucket Seats, Console

Description

This car is like sitting in a time machine going back to the 70s! It is extremely rare to find a stock, unmolested 1973 Duster in this kind of condition. The original purchaser owned this car until just recently and took extraordinarily good care of it. She meticulously documented all service work that was done to the car through 134K miles, from Dec 8, 1973 to Mar 6, 2009. There have only been about 5K miles put on it since 2009. I don't believe this car has ever spent a night outside. If you traveled back in time to the early 70s and found this car at a used auto dealership, you would be impressed - let alone 45 years later!
The only rust on this car at all is light surface rust on unpainted underside surfaces. The entire drivetrain is numbers matching original. The car retains all of it's original steel body panels and is straight as an arrow. The body still carries the original B-1 Sky Blue paint, although there has been a partial repaint at some point. The new canopy vinyl top was just installed.
The interior is fantastic. It has a new dash pad and new carpet. The bucket seats, console, door panels, headliner, etc all look like new. All of the factory gauges still work except for the ALT gauge.
The engine and engine bay look like new as well. The carburetor, master cylinder, power steering pump, and steering gear box have all been recently replaced. The car starts right up, runs and drives like new. The only caveat is that the oil light will flicker at idle when hot. I replaced the oil pump and it has good pressure. It's possibly the sender, but is definitely nothing to worry about operationally.
Back in the day we would take a car like this and put mag wheels on it. Then we would install an aluminum intake and 4 barrel carburetor. Possibly we would cut off the stock tail pipes and dump the exhaust just past the mufflers for a hot sound. Instant Muscle Car!
Note: I ended and relisted this vehicle due to an error in the original listing.
