Owned a ‘76 tricked-out notchback and a ‘77 fastback. 2 of the absolute BEST cars I’ve ever owned…and I’ve owned a LOT of cars over the last 4 decades!
Man, i see in some video that this car are unreliable, because how advanced it was. And unfortunately, a lot of modern car also suffers the same faith as every Vector supercar 🥲
Move along. Karma farmer. Took a full two minutes before they even showed a photo of an Econoline. Nothing interesting to see here... although I had never before heard about the weight under the truck "bead". I wonder if it's like the one under the truck bed?
I think it’s all been said but…. Slow down, take care in the pronunciations and it would be a very informative video. BTW the pictures do not align with the history once you start talking about the Caterham era. Most of the pictures are historic prototypes.
@@Marc816 Maybe, I think the front end needs to be a little lower to work in all cases. If you were facing the car it would hit you in the shins and maybe drag you under it but if your back was too it I think it might work.
This car was probably the first and only car he designed. It is remarkably innovative, with lots of features never considered before. Volvo usually gets credit for inventing seats belts.
STOP cawling a Lotus SIX uh Lotus Seven. AND What the frig is wrong wit yuhs? You ah uh hypah nooyawkuh. Yoo KNOW yoose can't drive one uh deese in Brooklyn~!
Lets be honest this was a 1967 Mustang, and by that time there was nothing innovative about this Mustang. It was not powerful with 320hp. A stout Chevy 327 will put out more than that. With most big block performance cars of that time somewhere close to 400hp. Give one to Shelby and it would have be a different animal. Mustang was always an affordable car, and if you wanted to scare the neighbors you had to spend more. A 396 Camaro or if you knew the right dealer a 427 Camaro would make this Mustang piss its pants. Dodge would give you 320 BHP with a 318, and 425 BHP with a Hemi in the Charger. Step up to the Corvette and you got independent rear suspension and 435HP from a 427 in a fiberglass shell. A car that could hang in there with the Shelby Cobra's on the track, but just could not edge them out. However most people never got to see a real Cobra, as Shelby could not build them like the big factories could. As your just reading the Car and Driver report for your AI voice over, I suspect you were not there to see these cars, as some of us were. Trust me the legend of the Mustang was sales numbers not performance. That's not to say some guys took mustangs to the next level in the garage at home, because they did. Hot Mustangs did not exist, they did, but with added cams, intakes and headers. Heck plaining heads or head swaps to up compression made some real monsters. If you put 400+ hp in a Mustang with the right gears it was quick as hell, but that was not how they came from the Ford Dealers most of the time.
A former buddy had one of these. Same color too. I got an 81 vette, with a blown motor. I built the motor and while I was working on it hickey was always saying how bad he was going to beat me. I spanked that boy hard, then told him he better get his daddy to build him another motor. He tried to lie and say he won but his girlfriend Missy wouldn't let him. He wanted to go on the interstate and go from a 60mph rolling start. That didn't happen as he shotgunnend me going up the entrance ramp to the interstate. I was in front of him before we made it to the interstate. He said he would get me from a red light after that, ironically 2 days later I'm sitting at a red light and hickey pulls up beside me, I busted his ass again. After that he started stealing from me and I didn't want anything else to do with him. Hope you read this Scott.
Ai sure sux. My name and details supplied, with Disapproval from the Antipodes. Thanks for the time you put into making sure the pronunciation is hackneyed like any text to English editor. Hope my comments didn't sound mean spirited, but I sure hope all your diodes ache perpetually on your left side....No Kiwi 🥝 Tick for this...
This Plymouth GTX is a cool car. Back in the 1970s, 1978, a friend had one. I had a Chevrolet that I thought was fast until my friend with his GTX blew my doors off! We both went to a bar and drank a beer and remembered the day...what a day!😊
