82 Plymouth took almost 6 traffic lanes to do a u-turn and was a dog...84 Crown Vic's had holes rusted rusted through the drivers floorboard within 3 years and the power steering would go out if you touched the brakes at all while cornering. Lol at the complaining about the new cars. Wonder what it was with those 83 and 84 Ltds and the damned floorboards? I dont think I ever saw one with a floorboard intact. In 90 I got an 83 at Chatt.PD. The motor pool dude gave me a stop sign to make a floorboard with. No shit. |
