When this car was last produced (1974) I only made $500 a month, and was at the tender age of 18. Employer, US Army 3rd Armor Division Europe.
In 74, I was making (take-home) $98.73 for a 48-hour week. Employer, R&S Vickers Des Moines Oil Co. And of that, I kept $20/week for expenses and banked the rest for college tuition payments. I still had enough left over after I paid the spring tuition that year to buy my 70 Challenger for an even $1,600. Of course, that left (and then kept) me broke.
