Thanks for your patience. I have really stretched the envelope on this for an old 60 plus year old guy. But at least I tried. And it looks like it sorta worked.

Ok, I HAD to do it. I bought this Duster 340 brand new in 1970 and it is completely original. Never painted, etc, etc. Still running on the original plug wires, exhaust, etc. I plan on keeping my Lexus IS350 just the same way. I am REALLY nuts when it comes to caring for a car. I mean R E A L L Y nuts. Thanks for taking a look. I'll stick to Lexus from now on.

Congrats! your car looks really good! great choice in color!
your IS will be happy in your hands. you will want to kill me if you see my IS350 now. havent wash it for like 3 or 4 weeks and it's just very very dirty now.

I've turned down (Please don't laugh) $35,000. It's been a baby of mine since day one and I just can't part with it yet. Also, it probably is worth more than the aforementioned figure. BUT, who really knows? Anyway, wait till 2041 comes around and people see my Lexus STILL LOOKING GOOD AND STILL ORIGINAL!!

Love the Duster. How many miles are on it? What does it have under the hood?
EDIT -- I didn't see the fender badge. Nevermind.
Oh, yeah, and the IS is not too shabby either.
