Big E's 70 Duster is home- took some pics!

Hi gang. Nice to hear the Bruins and Duster compliments.

I think for $4500 Canadian I got a pretty good deal. And then $80 to have the owner's buddy trailer it about 75kms(45miles home). The previous owner took care of getting it over the border and getting an Ontario ownership for it so that was good.

I had it appraised locally while it was being trailered to my place for $35! So today I went to the MTO and it's now all in my name, no hassles!

It is an absolute plain Jane car...the dataplate only has the bare, bare info on it. I don't think it could be any simpler. Not sure if this was common or not just to have this plain of a car in the lot??? I don't think anyone would order one like this?? Maybe the paint is a little unusual, but I`m sure it`s just one of the basic no extra charge options. And it was probably an option to get radio delete, the AM radio came as standard. Not sure if the smaller slant 6 was possible on a Duster in 70.

E24- 225 slant 6
D31 - 904 tranny
FK5 - Dark Burnt Orange metallic paint
L2X9 - Black vinyl bench
TX9 - Black door fram-interior
N95 - California emmisions
R11 - AM radio
Y05 - US Specs
EK5 - this didn`t decode, something about roof type or colour

I have to start a thread in the engines or slant 6 area to try and figure out why she won`t idle, but starts and runs fine at higher RPM. I also have to figure out if California cars didn`t come with a choke or if it has been removed...I need it here in my neck of the woods!!!
