1964 Valiant "Get Runnin & Drivin"

For about the last 15 years of my "career" I drove $1000 Dusters to work, anywhere from 120 miles round trip to just 40 or so. (OK so that same old Duster would cost $2000-3000 today where I live. Yea that was back in the 90s, 2000s. I'd get the car running and with safe brakes, clean the gas tank, sometimes find a "better" oem seat, and GO! Mostly slants, an occasional, 318. I might drive one 3 years or 3 months. Someone would always come along and buy it and usually for a profit. It only cost gas and insurance to drive to work. So I costs really nothing.

Now days, people ask how can they drive an old car with points, manual brakes and steering, a slant (really??), NO AC, and $30 used tires!!

Stepson (32) drives 30 miles total to work in a practically new 4 x 4 pickup with a Cummins that cost ???????...but the 4 x 4 is needed to get the $40,000 bass boat up and down the boat ramp!! He and his wife make about $160,000 gross and are always looking for the next "side" business to get into! :BangHead: :BangHead: :BangHead: :BangHead: :thumbsup: :rofl:
