Thomas,
It's OK not to have owned a car with a V8 but it can be fun. I'll bet that
there are people in Afganistan that never owned a bicycle or a camel.
I've had a '65 Olds 4-4-2 since it was new and it was fun to drive before
gasoline went down the tubes. Quick ratio manual steering (Special order),
LSD etc with 9.98 lbs/HP. Came with terrible brakes but was corrected with
4 pot disc brakes. Was sure nice to hear the carb howl when you put your
foot in it. Could probably tow one roadster while beating another in a
drag race.
$3308 out the door at the dealership.
