Very nice ride.

I remember those days. I could not let the car run while I filling up. It seemed to suck gas thru those carbs faster than the pump could fill the tank.

That's a hot Olds. All that horsepower is great going straight, as long as you don't have to turn that hunk of steel.

Great looking machine. Reminds me of drag races on Woodward Avenue north of Detroit in the late sixties. I'd like to see cars built like that today and with McIntosh radios.

Love that 3 year, 36,000 mile warranty - surely for $166,945.00 they could warrant the thing for at least 48,000 miles.
