I've never been much of a fast car sort, but back in the
early 90's I had a $250 1974 Chevrolet Caprice Classic
w/ the 400 cu in engine. It did have some get up & go, even
for such a heavy car. There's a several mile long fairly
good grade going over the Coast Range hills between here
and Corvallis (on I-5). I'd hit the bottom about 55-60mph
and run it up to about 95-100mph going up and it had quite
a bit more it could probably do easily, but that was fast
enough for me w/ an old junker rustbucket!
