This is the car that we actually built for long distance road trips. The last two summers we did a total of 13,600 miles mostly on 2 lane blacktop in 2 month and a half long trips. Mildly built 318 with an RH42 4 speed overdrive automatic.
My wife's selection of Plum Crazy was perfect and the car was like a conversation magnet. We must have talked to hundreds of folks in small towns all across the country because they just walked up to look at the car.
