That's good to hear. They do make good cruisers and it is something different when parked next to a half dozen small block cars at your local cruise spot. If you are ever curious about value watch ebay motors. You can find nice clean original slant a bodies pop up from time to time and they go for a few grand. In my opinion I would rather pay 4K for a low mileage 73 scamp slant than a 9 year car with 150K
