Re: At first glance...
No Vette driving here this weekend as Police Watch is out in full force. The 76 is a piece of sculpture just sitting and it is fun to drive on twisty roads. Right now I have not driven it long enough that the fuel is out of the carb and lines so will take another while I crank and give it the spray in the carb until I get it filled up in the lines again and then I'll drive it every couple weeks. It is "cruder" to drive than the Z by a lot in terms of how things work, clutch is almost brutal comparitively and only four gears but it sure as heck goes around corners on the road like fire. Originally 180 hp I believe and I now have it up to around 220 hp without porting, relieving, cams, etc and it does fly on the road though does not have the punch of modern big engines. I still love it and it costs me a couple hundred a year is all to keep it so it stays.
