You know what makes A-bodies so great?

in 1971, my 70Dart 340/4speed ps, pdb, no AC, crossed the track scale at 3330, with 130 pound me in it, making it 3200 with about a half tank of gas. I guess about 3170 on "E", lol.

What makes A's great?
I could always afford one?
naw, they're just fun to rip around in especially with a small-block combo.
I almost bought a 340-E once, but I couldn't stand the sound of the slamming doors; the echo was just too much, and, compared to a Formula S, I wasn't enamored of the handling, which is what I was shopping for.
But I gotta admit, I've had a soft-spot for the looks of the AAR's, ever since high school, when the first lime-green one rolled up to the gas station I was working at. What a beauty.
