    Sorry, but those cars are turds at best... A fully restored one goes for like 3K. Oil burnin' engineering nightmares. Hey why dont you put a V8 in one and really waste some money?

    My buddies rampside had well over 500,000 miles on it when it was rear-ended by a drunk driver Christmas Eve 2002. he found it in the desert in CA in the 70's. they leaked because the rubber O-rings on the pushrod tubes dried out when they weren't driven. Viton rings solves that problem. 4 wheel independent coil spring suspension (except 64 rears [​IMG]), turbochargers, 4 speed transaxles, aluminum engines and heads, all on an entry level compact car.

    Thanks for your insight, Mr. Nader. [​IMG]
