A proper Fiat

@ Pippin - If you’re looking at a used 911 - I suggest the Targa roof - last made in 2012- with the hatchback ( see my pic above) the car becomes quite practical for hauling stuff- and I imagine even with the hatchback open and tied down for items too large to get inside.
OK?

Ron, I said the Porsche can;t haul plywood. A couch is not plywood. My opinion still stands.
Peace

You’re a tough cookie, Bruce. And I’ll bet there’s a lot of plywood in that couch.
Buy a 911 and rent a truck by the hour when you need plywood, or better yet have it delivered because after all you can afford a 911!

Its so nice to see this Forum branch out a little from only music and into cars.
To me I think that a lot of Audiophiles also have a car fetish on the side.
I know I do and I enjoy both hobbies equally.
This is my baby.
Its a 1966 Ford Mustang GT-350 clone with a 347 stroker motor, 5 speed trans, 9 inch rear end with 4.11 gears.
At 70 mph (4K on the tach) in third gear, I can mat the throttle and it will start spinning the rear tires. until I get off the throttle till the tires hook up.
The engine puts out 465 HP and 440 Ft/Lbs of torque on the Dyno in a 2800 lb car.
The mechanical secondaries start opening at 4K just as the peak torque comes on stream with the Quick Fuel 650 Carb.
Its a fun hoot to drive and it seems that everyone give me thumbs up and or takes pictures of the car.
Just thought you might be interested and and enjoy seeing a classic car.

Wow, very beautiful. Very sanitary and with excellent shut lines. Body guy did an excellent job.
Don’t you just love how 6 lbs /hp feels? I have a 3.8L Boxster (no, it didn’t come that way) that’s around 7 lbs/hp and it’s hilarious to drive.
Hello RonP,
Yeah!!
It is such a nice looking car especially with the Candy-Apple red w/ Wimbledon white stripes.
And the 5 spoke rims really set the whole car off.
The car just blows away the competition in so many ways. It is a fun car to drive especially with the windows down. And when the secondaries open it feels like a neck-snapping rocket and becomes scary-fast real quick.
