It had the factory mags and header, was faster than the weight (3000 lb on the Donneybrooke scale) and power (factory said 125 bhp from 2 litres) would suggest. I really bought the wrong car, since I was an autocross freak. I should have bought a Spridget. I finally traded the '66 2000TC with gearchange problems even-up for a '68 SAAB 96 in good shape. It still was a fine car, comfortable, tight and usable except in deep snow. phile@pwcs.stpaul.gov -- Login name: phile In real life: Philip J Ethier Phone: 298-5324
