Let's see your first A-body!
First (and only) new car I ever bought. First Mopar too. 1971 Duster, originally a slant, 3 on the floor swapped in a 318 about a year after I bought it. Kept that car for 12 years (an eternity in New England), just under 280k. Floors were pretty much gone & the engine was getting very tired when I parked it (parts car for the '70 Dart I replaced it with), but body-wise didn't look bad.
Picture was taken in '74 on a cross-country trip a high school friend and I took.
Must have gotten some really bad gas on that trip, car barely idled by the time we got home. Carb was full of some kind of gunk as was the fuel filter and the pre-filter in the tank.
