My Other Car is a...
how about the Gapp & Roush "Tijuana Taxi" P/S ?
now THAT'S a Mav !
I've had a '70 Ranchero GT with a 351-C , FMX , 9" / 3.50 Locker . Gads of low-end torque ; something that the "335-Series" was known for .
In keeping with the theme-of-the-thread ; "My Other Car Is... " a beat-up-but-runs-great 2001 Geo Metro , my work vehicle ; a company car .
Even with the severe flogging that poor car has endured , it's got 140,000+ miles , and still runs bitchin' !
It's the 4 cylinder model , complete with an archaic-by-today's-standards 3 speed auto , which shifts *HARD* when you let it wind-up .
I think it's got a high-speed-upshift governor and a super loose converter .
It runs very well ; averages 30 mpg ( with the way I drive it :lol: ) ; and like the old Timex commercials ( which were parodied in the Blues Brothers ) : "It Takes a Lickin' , and Keeps On Tickin' " .
Prosaic truth is , if I could find one that's not beat to **** , I'd have no problem using it as a daily driver :thumbup:.
I like everything car-related , Fords included . Even Jim Wangers
( Mr. GTO ) has a diverse automotive collection ...
... always has .:headbang:
