Earlier Duster stripes touched the bottom of the stripes, but in 73, you could buy the 340 seperate. (I think, lol) A True Hybrid: Burns Gas AND Rubber!

The 340 is not. IIRC, there is no 340 decal on the 1/4 panels of 73 cars. I also believe you could not get a 340 designation decal on the 1/4's of a Demon, stripe only

The 340 must of been put on a long time ago as it is all weather cracked just like the stripe. I can also see where the 340 call out would of been on the fenders. 4515022-June%202008%20010[1].JPG (51 downloads)
