There is a GM V8 Diesel corvette on a forum I used to be on. My friends dad in high school had a Datsun 1600 Roadster with a stinky sooty Diesel in it, I dont know why: gas was .90 a gallon back then. Then there was sis' VW rabbit Diesel, cold starts were a stage show, expected KISS to bust out of the smoke and start jammin.
