Those things on the Berlinetta are $20 wire caps when they were new, right out of the JC Whitney catalogue. The cars I mentioned all used true wire wheels that require tightening each wire with a wrench to make the wheel spin true and balanced. Huge difference. I don’t understand what your problem with my point is. It’s very clear. It’s not belittling, it’s stating a fact. Don’t take it so personal. |

When I was in high school, my buddy's dad had one - an 82, I think, with T-tops. When his dad would go out of town, we'd go joy riding in it.

This is what I remember. Buddy of mine had one in the early 80's while I just had a lowly RS. Loaded with technology for it's time. We all thought it was as cool as Kitt.

They called it Cease-Fire Injection. lol! Those are the people with lack of knowledge that called it that though. Once you upgraded the fuel pump and turned up the fuel pressure regulator a bit, it ran great. Lots of low to midrange rpm torque and not much high end HP, but everything else was that way back then.

The Girlinetta! I have a buddy who had a 78/79 2nd Gen one, he might actually still have it. I had another friend who had an 83/84 in High School, it was a blue 6 cylinder. That thing looked cool as heck, but was slow compared to all the Japanese compacts kids had in the 90s.

Overdone IMO, but a lot of cars are that way today. Make them all look like angry transformers I guess. Makes me miss the good old days with the clean timeless designs they had.
