Maybe Chrysler was trying to use up the extra disc spindles by making them std on the late production '72 340 models. Both spindles were not needed for '73 production as the drum and disc spindles were different along with the upper A-arm.

I am looking for concrete answers .... As far as my sig line , PM me I will explain....

Well, it is concrete that some '72 340 Dusters came std with drums. My first '72 had drums and I bought it new.

BTW, just because something is std doesn't mean it can't be deleted.
A cigar lighter was std but could be deleted. The window sticker on my car showed a $4.00 credit for the delete.

Thanks branded for the link .... I still seems that at one point in 1972 disc brakes were standard then at another point in 1972 they were optional....

Yes Bee it seems that some 1972's had Disc brakes as an option and some did not .... I also own a 1971 Duster 340 with non power drum brakes and for years I thought that if it was a Factory 340 car that it had to have disc (power or not) It is now evident that is not the case ....

What seems to be on that site is Factual .... It is his remarks and thoughts that are not welcome.

I have NEVER seen anyone have a bad word to say about Barry, he is an asset here...

The only time people seem to get upset is if they are trying to pull something and Barry calls them out. Not saying this is the case here, but that is the only time I have seen anything similar at least over many years.

"Seems" factual ? Of course it is factual. (We are talking scanned original documents here) As said, you don't deserve his help or the information he has amassed.

Barry is a respected board member and contributor to the hobby. You could simply address him directly via PM but your every post mentions him. So they are technically responding to your postings, just not your question.

This seems to be because in a previous post Barry made mention that he would not assist folks make a fake window sticker.

I had a '72 Demon 340. It had 10" manual drum brakes. It was a pretty bare bones car, column shift auto, bench seat and rallye wheels were about it.

slantzilla, You actually bring up a good point, I wonder if Dodge and Plymouth were the same as far as Standard equipment goes.

It's not his signature. He's actually typing that on every post he makes.

Quote:
That is between us


Please use the ignore feature and block Barry if you don't want to see what he posts. If you keep trying to be confrontational like this, I'll give you some time off from posting, because what you are doing is not "between us," with regard to you and Barry. I'd normally address this via PM, but since you have chosen to make a public spectacle of the issue on 2 occasions now (the first being your hijacking of someone else's thread), I figured that replying in public was appropriate.
