And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two?

Beautiful car, very advanced for its day. Like riding on air, not bouncing around on cart springs like most American offerings of the period. The exhaust looks a little low slung on this one though.

ReplyDeleteGorgeous, but the exhaust is an eyesore.
ReplyDeletevery beautiful lines, but.. the mechanicals... Nope.
ReplyDeleteWedge a turbo V6 into it with a close ratio 6 speed.
And a suspension to match.
That and a Fiat 124 Pininfarina are my favorite classics.
