Joined up in '91, out in '97.
2nd Btn 8th FA out of Ft Lewis WA. We were attached to 9th Inf Regt there. Deployed to Gitmo for awhile to babysit migrants.
Drove my 4sp 340 Duster all the way back to Col. Ohio from WA. Best week of my life, getting out and the trip home.
Basic and AIT was at...
Thanks, I never should have let that orange one go. That was a 4sp and reliable as the day is long. I like my current car, but man that orange one was a screamer.
Heres something fun...a pic of my other 73 during my drive back from Ft Lewis in 1995. This was taken somewhere in Utah as I recall. A picture of a picture lol.
Nothing was wrong with the rear, the picture makes it look that way somehow :lol:
Pretty stock 340, A bunch of the car was already done when I got it. I did mostly cosmetic stuff over the past year. No plans with the car other than to enjoy it this summer and continue to fix the small things it needs. For example the dome light doesn't turn off...if the key is on, its on...
Quick Duster(s) history for me
Turned 16 in '87, needed car. I always liked the A body style, and found a real nice 74 Duster for my first car. 318, column auto. Daily drove for about 4 years. I replaced that with a slant 6 Demon and drove it till my entry into the miltary.
While I was out...
