I bought a new 1974 Duster 360/727/8-1/4 rearend when I was 18 yrs old. It had parchment interior with bucket seats, power disc brakes, power steering, rallye wheels & E70-14 Goodyears. It was yellow exterior with black stripes and the Duster360 callouts (pot metal) were behind the front wheel wells. No 360 callouts on the rear quarter from 1974-1976. Stripes in 1974 were same as 1973 I believe. It had no options other than those I described. It was your basic 1974 Duster 360 with no frills and except for the 360 motor it's hard to tell the difference from a 1973 Duster 340.
1974 Dusters did the have engine compartment braces too like in the above pics and engine was Chrysler blue.
1970 FE5 Duster 360/904/3.91's SOLD
1973 TB3 SpaceDuster 340/4spd/4.10's SOLD
Moparless for now but when the opportunity is right I'll have another one.

I did make some changes to the car,it was dark moonstone metalic ugly.. and i just couldnt paint the motor blue with a blue car just didnt look right lol. and yes no call outs in 74, i just liked it better that way... I tried to keep most of the car stock or close to it... Hell me and some friends did the whole car all in house and i only had about 3500.00 in it total.....

I looked through my old magazines & saw that it wasn't a test drive article, but a 3 part "hop-up" series on a '74 360 Duster. Car Craft Magazine in August, September & October 1974. [I have only the Sept. copy].
IIRC, that car was white and had a rallye mirror on one side and a remote round mirror on the other, if I'm not getting articles mixed up. Quality control?

My all original paint '74 360 car had the call outs on the quarter.
