... one's youth is a very stiff price.

I want an early sixties Dodge Dart slant six convertible in blue. My youth wasn't such an expensive proposition. And I wasn't in much of a hurry back then.

* Firebirds are included in this designation, since they were so very nearly the same car.

I have no clue why this thing would be worth so much. To each his own.

I get it, nostalgia for the "car you lusted for in your youth" or whatever. Sometimes, heroes are better left unmet. I see that 6.6 sticker. That means that boat anchor made all of what, 200 horsepower? Sure, low miles, looks like 11,500 from the ad. 11,500 miles of literally doing nothing well. This isn't even the Bandit year/version of the TA.

However, even after all that, if it's your money and it's what you want, enjoy!
