Default Questions from Newbie



Hi:</P>


I am interested in buyinga 64-69, either coupe or covert. This will be a second car that my wife will use locally, so it will not be a garage queen.</P>


I am looking for thoughts on which model would be the most user friendly.</P>


A/T, PS, PB and A/C will be "musts."</P>


I know it will be hard to find all those features. Which, if any, can be retrofitted?</P>


Thanks</P>


Sam</P>

O.K.-if you're looking for all those comforts in a classic, it's not going to be hard to find, it just mightcost a bit more. I would recommend if it's going to be driven often to go with a 67-up model year as the interiors are a bit more comfy and have more safety features(seat belts,collapsible steering columns,headrests,etc...)</P>


Now onto the retro-fitting. Any of the above model years can have those things(a/c,p/s,p/b) "bolted-on" without much hassle, however it is costly and labor intensive. As for the auto trans, it won't be too hard to find one with it as a lot of people preferred it over the manual.</P>
