I have a 74 Duster and am wondering what year model fenders will work and what is different about them. I was looking at the AMD catalog online and they are showing 72-74 Duster Fenders as the same, but Dart fenders as having a different part number. Obviously they need to be 72-up fenders because of the side marker lights. Several people have various year and model fenders for sale around here and I don't want to waste money buying the wrong ones. Will 76 Duster fenders work? What about 73-75 Dart Fenders? The body lines all look similar. Thanks in advance

No Dart or early Duster fenders will work UNLESS you use the entire front clip. With Duster fenders the rear dogleg comes pretty much straight down while Dart fenders come back at an angle, that is the biggest difference. I don't believe you can use 72 fenders either becasue of the way the grille and core support tie bolt on, but I might be wrong. Any 73-76 Duster or Valiant should be the same.

The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

So it looks like 73-76 Duster/Valiant Fenders are what I need to look for. I think I have some here locally I can get, I just wanted to be sure so as to not buy the wrong ones. Thanks for the help!!!
