Brought home a 71 Duster

I didn’t disclose what I paid. But I have nothing to hide they were asking 3k for it. I offered them $1500 they weren’t having it. So I came up to 2k they countered with $2200. So I said I’ll meet them in the middle at $2100. That’s what we settled on. They were happy and so was I. Good people. The thing is I already rented the trailer and made up my mind I was getting regardless of the price even if I was to pay the full 3k. Even though the floor boards are full of water inside I felt it was so complete it was worth it regardless. Even with the water in it there’s going to be rust but when I looked under the car the floor boards are not showing any rot. We shall see this weekend when I rip the carpet out.

Your duster is nice shape too.

That’s a heck of deal!! I gave $2200 for my 72 nearly 11 years ago and it was missing the intake, transmission and some of the interior. It did have the twin scoops, sharktooth grill and an 8.75 though, so the way I saw it, those 3 parts alone were worth over $1500 alone (that was before they were reproducing the sharktooth). Oh yeah, I also drove 7 hours one way to get it.

Here’s how it looked the day I got it.
