Branchwater Jack SASS #88854 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 What a neat car... Something real special about the sound of the thing... Wow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I love 1960s and early '70's sports cars. ANY Ferrari, especially the 250 and 500 Testa Rossas in full cry will sure wake up the chickens. Only two sports racers from that era I like better, a D Type Jag and the pick of the little, a Lotus Eleven Le Mans. BTW a 2.5 Liter engine is about the same size as the one in the Toyota Tundra pickup, but the Tundra won't turn 200 mph on a long stretch..... and it NO WAY looks as good, nor does it have "The Sound".

Rancocas Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 My 1962 Austin Healey 3000 straight six was a lot of fun. But got rid of it because it was accident prone, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Had a '60 MGA like that. If you went out in the morning and it started it had to be a accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Hoss Carpenter, SASS Life 7843 Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 I had an Austin Healy 100-six; great car with wonderful sound. I also had an MG B with overdrive; I have a lot of first hand knowledge of the "Prince of Darkness", especially one late night on a lonely Mississippi road at 85 MPH in the AH. It gets your attention quickly! Hoss C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
