I'm game for a new thread, and I'll try "Dream Cars" for 10,
Alex......
My whole (driving) life, I've wanted a Mercedes Gullwing. Don't ask
me why. Doesn't matter.
But just for TODAY, what I really want is my 1966 Pontiac GTO
back. 389 cid, 440 lbs/ft of torque at 2800 rpm, 4-bbl Carter
carb (aka: "The Flush Toilet") and positrac rear end. Dark (Barrier)
blue, with black interior. Red pinstripes on both fenders, and
Goodyear red stripe Polyglas tires. A gorgeous car!! (Gas mileage
be damned...my 85 Chevy pu gets the SAME gas mileage the GTO did!!)
Or so it seems to me at 3:21 pm CT, USA.
