This car cost about $7,000.00 in 1965 and now goes for $65,000.00 +. Not a bad return on your investment. Let's here it for American musclecars, no matter who the manufacturer might be. I'll take a Boss 429 Mach I, 396 Camaro, Chevelle SS 454, Hemi 'Cuda, Javelin AMX, or Firebird Formula 455 or Trans Am over any Z-car any day. As for the little econoboxes, they make wonderful paperweights, but lousy transportation. P.S. The 427 AC could go from 0 to 100 and back to 0 in just 13 seconds, and only 4.2 of them were used to go back to zero. Excellent braking!! P Kelliher AT&T-ISL S Plainfield, NJ
