How much power does it have?
How are those cars to drive?

David,as you would think 120ish HP aint crap!Found a little today when I put some timing in it.I have GREAT respect for them and their transaxles.Have had a lot of experiance with them over the years.About put my 63 326 coupe in a ditch one night,telephone poled a 62 wagon.in late 63 my moms friend rolled one and died in it.I learned to just think im driving a corvair when I get in one.This is about as bone stock as you can get one.Tom
