Re: Friday puzzlers - 8-1-2014

[Bob <64ragtop@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

For some reason, I always got a kick out of the big, loud "boats" that roared, spun the tires and graaadually got off the line - then went like hell!  I especially recall a '60ish Pontiac ambulance that was almost always in the running for top street.  Not the fastest, nor the quickest, but consistent, consistent, consistent & never broke  The Ford Galaxy A stocker was in the same league. faster, quicker, but seemed to gradually move off then go like hell!  That 300 just reminded me of those cars.  Oh, and you're right - it looks beat with a ugly stick! :-D

No, I guess not Bob.....besides, my RT Charger can beat his times.  Hell our Volvo rental car could beat that, and did.  But that's just street messing around. :)

The '62 Belv(e)dere with cut quarters went for $1799.  Seems like a pretty good deal to me, looking otherwise pretty darn solid, coming with possibly usable quarter sections, and having a '64 US Nationals participant sticker to boot!
