The back seat folded forward so it would be flat, and a panel between the interior and the trunk folded down allowing much more "space" to haul long stuff like a ladder/long lumber. There were no special decals or anything.

The Hang 10 is a space Dart. Last edited by Chief-Kikerdown; 01/26/09 05:54 PM. WANTED: Your 71-78 Late B-body sedan parts! Police or Civilian.

MY340 master M Joined: Jan 2003 Posts: 5,270 Missouri	Plymouth SpaceDuster just like the Dodge Dart Sport Convertriple was a Chyrsler nickname for the 1973 A-body cars with the M52 sunroof and C73 fold down seat & trunk dress up options. The Spacemaker package was the name for the fold down/trunk dress up C73 option.
