Maybe this has been posted before in the past, but as I was fantisizing things I would probably never get to see or experience, in a head to head road course event, which one would take the checkered flag? Cars pecs seem pretty close.
916 - 2.4ltr, 190 hp, 159. ft. lbs@5200, wgt - 2000 lbs 1972 Dino, 195 hp, 167 ft. lbs@7600, wgt- 2381 lbs BTW I absolutely love both (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Floor pan made of fiberglass, attached to the frame with pop rivets. The visibility of a sleeping bag, but at least it's better than a 308. Leather upholstery, sewn together with thread that was made to last weeks. The parts that are still available are expensive and difficult to find. Add that to the PITA of working on it, and you have a thumbs down car. I'm just thankful there's a Ferrari wacko here in town to whom I can send the few that still call. He's rich, and he got that way repairing Ferraris.
