Amazing looking car, sounds incredible.<br />
<br />
I"ve owned many classic cars, American cars, buggies, and I"ve never had anything which commands as much attention as this car.<br />
Youths fall off bicycles, crowds gather in car parks, it"s crazy.<br />
Not for you if you"re a wallflower!<br />
<br />
<br />
It starts first time every time, runs well, pulls amazingly strongly.<br />
It handles ok, drives nicely and is relatively comfortable.<br />
<br />
Please note, this is a hot rod, of sorts.<br />
Also, it is a very old car.<br />
It is very noisy, a little antisocial, and has a lot of heat-soak into the cabin from the big block.<br />
There is no heater mechanism (never was to my knowledge)<br />
And, as with all old modified cars, there is always something to do to keep it going or make it better.<br />
<br />
It"s very very solid, and now quite well sorted.<br />
There are a few jobs which the car would benefit from but not much;<br />
<br />
The brakes need a really firm prod, they pull it up ok, but it could use a servo or bigger discs really.<br />
Original tailgate glass is a bit marked.<br />
It"s ok, but not as good as the other glass.<br />
It is flat laminate, could easily be replaced if you wished.<br />
The oil pressure gauge needs connecting (proper Dakota sender is included)<br />
Speedo needs the correct sender, <br />
(I"ve had it working on a rigged up adaptor but it needs the correct sized output spindle; tiny job and cheap to source)<br />
Interior lights have missing lenses (down in the side of the centre console)<br />
if better replacement units were fitted, it would look nicer.<br />
The rear sunroof is sealed up (I do not know why, it was like that when I bought it<br />
but the wiring is in so it could be sorted)<br />
These are mainly small jobs,<br />
theres nothing major to do, or nothing at all if you aren"t bothered by any of it...<br />
<br />
