Let's post some fun stuff here

Buddy of mine had a feather Duster. Neat car. Not as much of a slug as you'd expect, either...

This one here has a real bare fender tag.



Many of the A body cars I’ve bought at least have the R11 AM radio. This one doesn’t even have that.



I wonder if it had a block off plate. There is no speaker in the dash.

Doin’ it lizard style.

Not to be confused with Lizzo-style.

Those are unique cars.
I would love to find one.

Come get this one before I...

Who has heard of THESE cars?

Sort of rare, not valuable though.

In the mid 70s, Ma Mopar tried something to improve fuel economy in the Dodge and Plymouth A body fastback cars. The Dart Lite and Feather Duster were slant six, aluminum case 833 overdrive, no frills cars with some aluminum components used to reduce weight. The base models came in around 2910 lbs, about 200 less than a standard model. These cars were EPA rated at 36 mpg freeway in 1976.
Most of us don’t care about fuel economy but I like the history and engineering of these classics.

Looks like a decent body.

Back in the day, drag racers liked these.

Still a market for the lightweight panels and IIRC bumper brackets.

IIRC the transmissions had low ratio first gears.

I also believe you could get an auto.
