**OH SO RARE**:: 1978 Dodge Aspen
The Dodge Aspen was a compact sedan/coupe built on a chassis shared with the Plymouth Volaré, Dodge Dart, & Chrysler Valiant. This next example is priced at a fairly high asking price…but how many low mile Aspens in nice shape can possibly exist on the planet? Find this 1978 Dodge Aspen offered for $7200 in Ft Myer, FL via craigslist. Tip from Dascpcu.

When you asked " how many low mile Aspens in nice shape can possibly exist on the planet? ", I wanted to be snarky and say "One too many". But then I looked at this thing, and as often is the case, I just have to take my hat off to anyone who preserved a car this well for so long. Why devote such care to an Aspen? Because it was there!
Aspen/Volare are F-body. Dart/Valiant are A-body. They share nothing other than engines and transmissions, along with rear axles. Not a "shared platform" at all.
I hope it got "Rusty Jones" rustproofing from the dealer…
