I have a chance to get a 71 Duster.  I was thinking about it as a daily driver.  it is a 318 manual 3spd on the floor.  Should get decent milage.  I have a 340 in the garage and it might be nice to find a 4spd and make it a 340 4spd Duster.  What are your thoughts?  I know the 340 I have in the Challenger got worse gas milage than the 383 in the heavier Charger :shruggy:

Thats what I was thinking :2thumbs: I need the gas milage arguement to justify the purchase :cheers:  I would think even with the 340 it would get better millage than my truck :shruggy:  I can just use the truck for rental property use :scratchchin:
