    Yes, for their day the 428 Cobra Jet was a fast car. As for bicycling, it soothes the nerves and is a great way to exercise. :)

    Yup, most late 60's/early 70's muscle cars were high 14 sec cars. Bone stock, only the big block lighter weight cars could break into the 13's. Still, they're legendary and looked great.

    Does that $3,650 include the price of the car? Because that only equates to $30k in today's money.

    Rear end damage

    Just speaking the truth brother, it is what it is.(y)

    Rear end damage
