They do have more creature comforts but my wife and I didn't really care about all that and sold all that new stuff 20-something years ago and went right back to driving the old stuff. I'm to the point I don't really trust anything else anymore. Keep it stupid simple  |
I don't want to hijack this thread, as I agree with 64Speeds direction in keeping it a Pontiac.
In 1985 we were driving from northern CA to Lake Powell in Arizona in our '64 Galaxie with factory AC and a 352 with a 4bbl and a 3.0 rear gear. In the Mojave desert at 80 mph with the AC blowing ice cubes, we passed 3 or 4 new 1984-85 Cadillacs with the hoods up and steam erupting from their blown up 4100 V8 engines. In our 20+ year old car. Had a guy in an LS powered pickup trying to shut me out on a grade and he failed. I guess his truck had a speed limiter. LOL.../.
