| General comments: |
These are fantastic and stylish full size Yank-tanks full of chrome and so well built that they seem to last for ever. Performance from the flat 6 engine is not staggering but it sounds great and fuel consumption is no where near as poor as I was expecting. Thanks to the internet most parts are available direct from the USA by mail order.
Cornering and handling are not the cars best features but driving one does put a smile on your face. The bench seats will seat about 8 UK sized people comfortably! |
