Somebody called for breakdown assistance? You have a problem with your car, sir? she asked, hitching up her drawers. Yes, I am an expert diagnostician. What seems to be the problem? Oh, you are overheating? Ooh, that seat is low! ...
And those of us who appreciate and love them do so despite those flaws. Same with Ferraris, Alfas, MOPAR Ford and Chevy and even (gasp) MB BMW and dont get me started on period Audis... American muscle cars from the 60's and 70's couldn't take curves wort...

"...these cars are mechanically unreliable and absolute rustbuckets" Hi Georges, How are Miuras mechanically unreliable, vis a vis other highly tuned high strung high performance cars pf the period? Let's start out with baselines, I am neither agreeing no...
due to combustion (due to the heat of the exhaust manifolds) escaping from the carburetors in the event of blockage of the floaters in the low position. Other thing to consider, Lamborghini formed the engine and gearbox in one casting. Its shared lubricat...
Rushing out for a 630a drive group meet up, will try to revisit this in more detail later, but in brief - 1. Yes, earlier drivetrain (engine and transmission) lubrication sharing was not ideal. Not really a practical problem during most normal driving, bu...
