So now that you have a collection, what's your thoughts on the driving experience of early vs late(er).

The car needs to be sorted out. But boy, it brings back memories! The shifter is sloppy as hell but I haven't missed a gear yet, no grinding. Power is good. The ventilation system is all messed up so no heat. The non-retractable seatbelts are fine with me, the weird parking brake works, just lots of little differences. I hope to do a progress thread on sorting the car out, but around here Nov 1 is a hard date for winter storage!

That reminds me of that weird articulated parking brake handle. Was always a real trick to get the damned light to go out on the dash, and to get the brake off! Finally switched it out to one from a later car...
I was so excited to get mine at the time, I didn't find anything wrong with the shift linkage! (though the first time my dad drove it, he couldn't find reverse) |
