Daily driving an A-body

You can rationalize, reason and calculate all you want. In the end, for ME, driving the old car is so much more satisfying.

Here is MY recommendation to DarTT: Keep the Stratus, and get your project to the point where it is roadworthy. THEN sell the Stratus and get a lesser Abody for daily use. That way you will have your pride and joy to fall back on if you need to wait for parts, or don't have time for a mid-week repair. You also get to drive a classic every day. This will also give you a feeling if driving the classic every day is really what you want (since you WILL be able to drive your Dart every day for a while).

Incidently, this is what I plan on doing. I'm going to finish my Duster, then get a local (new england) car that I don't feel so guilty about trashing through our winters for daily use. I had temptation to replace my modern car now, but then I would have two projects going (actually more).
