What's in a name? It's just a Sundance with decals and a few performance
goodies. A Plymouth Duster in
the early '70s was just a Valiant with a slightly different body style. A
friend of mine had one, slant 6, bench seat, narrow tires ....not much of a
performance machine, unless you added the goodies.
