4.5 Overall rating
(19 reviews)Owned one for over 25 years the best car I ever had ! { I have owned over 30 cars since 1974 }
Great car just sitting there. Gets more looks sitting still than any newer car does. Everyone has seen a toyota or honda but how many times have you heard " my grandfather had one of those " Custom or stock either way the cars from the 50's are sweet
For a 50+ year old, this car has some balls! The single four barrel carb setup on a 318ci supplies plenty of "get up and go" to move this vintage American iron. Dual front wheel cylinders, aka "Total Contact Brakes" stop this beast with ease. No noticeable brake fade from the all around drum brakes. Handling is marginal by todays standards, especially on the bias ply tires it's currently riding on. This car is definitely a cruiser. The engine runs strong and smooth and has required very little work to keep running in tip top shape. The suspension squeaks a little due to the bushings and mounts being very tired and dried out, but try to find replacement parts for these cars! The exterior appearance is what drew me to this car. I love big grilles, big fins, lots of chrome and quad headlights. Interior-wise, it's quite a basic setup with cloth bench seats back and front, vinyl padded dash and the most basic of accessories. The original headliner became very brittle and had to be replaced. This car hasn't cost a lot of money to maintain, mostly because I do all the work to it myself. Gas mileage is what you'd expect from a big old-school V8 that has no emissions controls built in. Because of the 4 barrel carb (aka "Power Pak"), the original owners manual insists that only premium gasoline be put in the tank, which in this case it always gets. The engine is designed to run on leaded fuel, so occasionally I put in a lead substitute additive when filling up at a local gas station. Other times I run aviation "Avgas" (100 octane low lead) which is ideal for these old engines. This is by far the neatest car I've ever owned. I always have a blast driving it. It gets thumbs up and a lot of smiles everywhere it goes. People love seeing a taste of past Americana, especially when it is preserved in its original condition as this car is.
this car has less than 44,000 miles on it and I am restoring it slowly to like new condition. It drives like a dream with the 277 v-8 push button automatic tranny. Great quality and super performance. Gas mileage is TBD not completely road ready yet. Awesome ride and great for a drive in movie.
Best gift I have ever received from my wonderful husband. All slow but ready to go anywhere at any time. It even has wipers. Fits my family and hasn't let me down.. Tons of potential for improvement and future fun.
