Review Summary
The reviews highlight a generally positive reception for this kit, noting its high level of detail, minimal flash, and multiple build options including engine configurations, hood styles, and decal choices. Common praises include the ease of assembly and quality of molding, though some users experienced fitment issues, particularly with the side windows, windshield, and chassis alignment. Despite these minor drawbacks, many reviewers expressed enthusiasm for building additional kits due to the overall enjoyable experience.
nice model, but older molding
This is a nice model of the 1971 Duster and can be built in several versions. It is mostly flash free and assembles easily. You can leave the hood scoops and rear wing off for more of a base model look. The reason I don't give it 5 stars is that it is an older molding that is not quite up to the standards of the new molding process.
Nice kit, with good options and detail.
I really enjoyed this kit. The mold had good detail and little flash. The decals come with both black and white stripe sets, plus some extra license plates and logos. The engine can be built as either a 4 barrel or six pack, and the under hood detail and hoses were very nice. I did find that it required some finesse to fit the body to the chassis due to a collision between the interior panels and the side rear windows. I also feel like the fit of the grille could be better, there are gaps at the top corners. Overall though, I would buy another one.
Love it!
Great kit and even greater car. It has the white or black 340 stripe options, as well as the dart sport hood center twister decal. You will have to fill 2 small holes on the trunk if you plan on not using the spoiler, and drill 8 holes in the hood if you use the scoops, the only other option is the intake. It has the stock 340 intake or a 6 pack intake which a 71 duster 340 didn't come with from the factory. If I'm not mistaken the 6 pack was a dodge only thing
