I had one of these a few years back and it was a blast to drive. With the 3:73 rear and 4 speed it would get up and go in hurry. Mine had the header and aftermarket exhaust which helped a lot. Only thing that hurt it was the guickie paint job the previous owner put on it.
I still have one of the original aluminum wheels that the owner painted red. Light as feather.
Another one of those cars I should have kept. Fun, fun, fun.
