#1 I had a white painted version of that car. It was a nice road boat. 425" Super Rocket, 405 HP - only ran on the real premium (2 formula changes ago). It got squishy going real fast. Never dared take mine over 118 mph. The drum brakes on it really were worthless at high speed. {there I did it! An apolitical comment}

#2 Agree. Anything beyond 95mph you began to experience liftoff.

#3 Was not a winner in the 1/4 mile but stood a chance in the 1/2 and better chance in 1 mile races against the cars of the day.

#4 beyond 95mph you began to experience liftoff.
If Teddy'd hit that bridge at 95 he coulda been President.

#6 That's a cute ad but with exhaust manifold heating the water just rolled in thru the floor heat channels. Really.
