Agree with tbzep's above statement.
Could have been a decent economy car.
They rushed it into production due to the phoney 70's gasoline "crisis".
My family bought and drove new cars with ALL BIG BLOCK 454's, 455's, and 460's all through the 'crisis' . Only bought cars with small block V8's when factories stopped offering big-blocks.
Still to this day I have only owned one car without a V8.
I have never owned a car with a top speed below 150mph.

Yes, there is such a thing as NORMAL
, if you have to ask what is "NORMAL" , you probably aren't !

Failure may not be an OPTION, but it is ALWAYS a POSSIBILITY.
ALL systems are GO for MAYHEM, CHAOS, and HAVOC !
