Question 75 plymouth duster

hey all, so Thursday I will be traveling to look at purchasing a 75 Plymouth duster, 360/automatic trans car. from pictures ive seen it looks pretty solid, needs trunk floor and lower rear quarters but nothing too serious. can anyone tell me the things I need to look for or common things that are a pain to replace/repair. also if I do get the car where are good suppliers of body parts and resto items for these cars? thanks in advance!

I've heard the best body sheetmetal, floorpans, quarters are from AMD. Youll pay a little more but its well worth it. Plus, if it matters, they're made right here in the U.S.A.

Exclamation duster

no pictures other than the ones on the craigslist add. the car is sitting in a small storage rental unit. like a 10x20 stall in one of the large storage units. so its been inside a while and concrete floor, how long I don't know. the way it sounds it needs paint, minor body/rust repair, wiring and an engine and you could drive it. I don't know how the interior is thou. basically does anyone think that a 75 duster is worth fixing back up? original or how hard is it to shoehorn and fab in a big block? I have a wicked 440 in a mud truck that deserves a home in a car but don't have the funds for a cuda or charger etc, this duster is priced under $2500!! that's why if it is as solid as he describes I think its coming home with me tomorrow.

They're not? I heard it was. Body men I know have said theirs are the best quality aftermarket panels around. What is made here anymore?
