first car!

My first brand NEW ride was an ice blue '70 Plymouth Duster after having driven a couple of well used conveyances. $2300 cash straight out of the showroom. I just got impresions made for two crowns to top off some dental implants. Just the 2 crowns cost more than that new Duster did.

borrowed when i had to, and my boss drives me to work. so there wasnt much need for my own at the time.
and i was waiting until i had enough money saved that i could afford something decent.

after driving around in my dads 2wd truck last winter, i know it will be good... the auto is smooth, the v6 is decently powerfull, and the car is comfortable so it should make a decent touring car next summer.

I loved this old beast... No carpeting, you could hose it down on the inside. This helped a lot when beer was spilled.

Mine was dark blue with a black top.

Not my first, but an early one of my 50+:



Perhaps my favorite:
