i guess it is heresy, but cars are s powerful and fast today
In 1987, Road and Track said a non-turbo Dodge Omni would do 0-60 in 10.2
seconds, same as a BMW 318i. That was considered fast for a basic $7000
hatchback. A 2.3-16v would do 0-60 in 7.8 and cost $35k.
No problem piling the grocery bags in the back seat of that [Checker].
You can get 27 paper boxes (cases) into the trunk and back
seat of the 126 long body. Front seats unimpeded.

yeah, well, certainly you don't have to seek out a ford specialist at
$125 an hour to throw 10 grand worth of parts at it hoping something sticks

Why 50 mpg? It's a diesel, they're not quite as sensitive to
RPM as a gasser. You can get a solid 25MPG in the truck if you
keep it under 1800 RPM, which

My Nikon Coolpix 775 has different sizes of pictures one can choose

I have an iPhone 3GS (3 generations out of date) and I can't choose size. I

Do you not have the option to get it insured as a classic? That way you can
set a good payout that would keep the vandals from killing it, as you will be
able to fund a rebuild. The parts are shared with the R107, so you should have
a reasonable source of parts for a long while. Not so lucky
I disagree. I own nothing but Diesels of many types and every one but the
Mercedes is very sensitive to RPM when efficiency is in mind. Only the
Benz seems to like to rev and still get great figures. My Powerstroke will
pull near 22 mpg if you never let it over 2000rpm while towing a 6500

A Checker should have enough room to drop in a Cummins from a

Minor point, the Cummins B-series, 6 cylinder, turbo (6BT) is used
in Dodge pickups, but that's not the only place to find them. They
were used in truck chassis up to class 6 at least.

There is a reason for Flickr, Picasa, Photobucket, DropBox, etc. They are
easy to link to, and you can post as many digital images as you like.
