The Plymouth Valiant was first introduced in 1960 to compete with other popular models such as the AMC Hornet, Ford Maverick, and Chevrolet Nova.  Over time, the Valiant became known for its durability and practicality and it remained a popular choice for car buyers throughout the 1960s.
 
In 1970, Plymouth decided to give the Valiant a sportier upgrade by introducing the Duster. The Duster was built on the Valiant platform, and it was designed to appeal to younger, more performance-minded drivers who were looking for a sporty and stylish car that was also affordable.  The Valiant $15 million dollar budget was used to refresh the Valiant line and the division dropped its two-door sedan and created a new two-door fastback body.
 
The Duster featured a sleek, aerodynamic design with a wide stance and bold styling. Initially, it was available with several engine options, including a 225 cubic inch Slant Six and a 340 cubic inch V8 engine.
 
One of the most notable features of the Duster was its lightweight construction, which helped to improve its speed and handling. It also had a relatively low price point, making it very popular among younger drivers who were looking for a budget friendly sports car.
 
Fast forward to today, and the 1970 Plymouth Valiant Duster remains a highly desired classic muscle car among car enthusiasts and collectors.  Its combination of style and performance makes it a top choice for collector car buyers.
