Would you believe that I bought that car, brand new, for 3800 dollars, and sold it for 2400 dollars 15 months later with only 13000 miles on the clock. The guy I sold it to was straight off the boat, could barely understand what I was telling about driving, did not have a valid drivers license. I drove it over to a private outdoor lot in Queens, armed the alarm, tossed him the keys, and never looked back.
It was getting about 6 to 10 mpg when I sold it and I couldn't afford filling up every second time I drove it. Cost? About ten dollars to fill up with Sunoco 260. I wonder today how anyone can afford to find and buy gas with enough octane to run a 428 with 10.2 compression? Mine would ping under moderate throttle with anything other than the best gas available.
Just reminiscing. I suppose it was stolen, and stripped, as was the case with so many cars in those days. Maybe I'll get my hands on another one some day. Thanx
