This is about as interesting as watching people guess how many jelly beans are in the jar. Except worse, because nobody wins the car if they guess right.

OK, Bill of Sale and keys are in my hand.

It's a...

...wait for it...

...1994 Plymouth Duster!!!

We'll tow-strap it home tomorrow after work and start on seeing if it will run.

God, why?

Is it a V6 or a 2.2?

There are a few local FWD Mopar folks around, if you need parts, etc hit them up:

BTW, there is an 89 Lebaron Coupe GT at the Damascas U-Pull-It with the 11" 4-wheels disc brakes, stiffer springs, etc. Cheap upgrades.

It was $50? Doesn't that qualify as a good enough reason to drag home a non-running K-Car derivative?

It's a 3.0 V6/5-Speed in Bright Red. 2-Door hatch, the actual "Duster" model with no chrome and a "power bulge" hood.

For $50 that is a score!!!! I would have scooped it. There is one of those in the parking lot where I work now and then. I have been so tempted to leave a card with the "if you ever sell this car" note in it.

They paid you to take it or you paid them?

I paid them, but I think it's worth it. Even if it's totally FUBAR I can strip it and make the $50 back.

It's a 94 Duster, last year of production. The 3.0L V6 is a Mitsubishi OHC unit making 141HP/178TQ's according to teh intarwebz.

It's really for Audra. She's been coming to the autocrosses, and has ridden in the constant FTD 914-6 race car (just look for ORPCA vids on YouTube for that monster), and she wants to race. She's racing her first autocross this weekend in my RX-7 but she doesn't like the fussy carb'd rotary or manual steering.

I figure a $50, EFI, FWD car will be a great place to start a project. She gets into racing more, I get another race car, and we spend more time together. Plus it's stupid-cheap.
