Old pictures type of day

PBR so how did it work in the ol ddays, say 1977 your Duster was what 6 or 7 years old? how much did the car set ya back back then? I notice from watching old TV shows such as Starsky and Hutch that a 6 or 7 year old car in the 70s was a beat old used car. I saw an episode of season 1
of Starsky and Hutch and there was a 67 camaro with primer spots I said to the wife "the car is 8 years old here and look at it..." I do remember my mom buying a 66 Chevelle 2 door in 77 cost her $550...


Out of school I applied at the local steel mill for a job and several other places. I got a job at a high volume gas station and one of my customers would come in with this black 1972 (340) 4 speed duster. I told him if he every wanted to sell it I wanted it. In 1975 I bought it for 1650.00 without even driving it. I bought the red 1972 cutlass in those pictures the same way.
