I just thought I'd share pictures of this smashed '72 Duster I've been robbing parts off of. I spotted it an insurance company lot near me back in September and tried buying it for a parts car however when I tried, it wasn't up for auction yet. I went to a junkyard to get parts for my Mustang and there it sat. So far, I bought the mint headliner, door sill trim, emblems and horn cap for $45. :cheers: I still want the dash vents, possibly the dash pad and a few other things :icon_smile_wink:

What a shame! The car looks very nice and absolutely fixable. That interior (what's left) is mint! Either way, great that you got a good deal on the parts.  :2thumbs:

OH.... That perfect taillight panel and lenses! ONE year only parts!
That dash pad is NICE!  I agree, pillage the whole car if you can, or pass along the location so we can have a stab at it.
Thanks for posting. Nice clear photos. Impressive.

Even if the front frame rail is bent, that Duster looks like an easy fix.  ::)

If it's as clean as it looks, buy the whole car and part it out. OR go in with a chop saw and make a nice profit for a weekends worth of work

Ask them what they will take for all the parts left on the car less the VIN tag.  :D

Remove a shopping cart full of parts from this car and get a volume discount!!!....you might do very well on eBay!  :2thumbs:

Those body panels are also worth some large...the doors, decklid, and right fender look mint! Somebody will eventually come along and cut the quarters off (even though I don't condone cutting up cars) - - but since this A$$Hole won't sell it whole you might as well make some money and supply parts for people who really need them...  :Twocents:

Grab as much as you can.....a few weekends of work - then lots of time selling and shipping stuff on ebay could net you some decent money towards getting your Duster painted.  :icon_smile_wink:

The green 4-door valiant in pic #2  :scratchchin:

Is it a '69 ?  :scratchchin:

Does it have decent turn signals in the grille?  :shruggy:

Nab 'em, if they're decent...

I could use another set...
