AhhhHa, now we're onto something.. Let's see, the old '77 Ranchero parked
along side the garage, that we use about once a month or less for odd
errands, has a 466 cu.in. Racing Head Service motor (Memphis, Tenn) that
dynoed at 508 hp, has a sorta rusty chrome Moroso Air Cleaner, 1 piece
smoothy chrome wheels w/50 series tires, Genuine Sears air shocks, 2 old '77
vintage seat belts, the only "badges" are the old GT stripes; will qualify
as a Hot Sports Car after all... Ooops, hold the phone, the beefed C6 won't
let you shift at 10k though. Jeez, I was just getting ready to go out and
wash the dirty 'ol beast, then cruise on down to the Jag/Porche/Ferrari
Dealer for show and tell.. Well at least the 'ol gal sets as low as a
Viper..

Oh, well, I'll park it next to a Viper next time i'm down at one of the
Casino's for lunch - being in like company oughto make the 'ol gal feel a
little better...
