The 86 platform is quite polite and quiet compared to what I grew up with. Mine didn't ever feel quite right until I made it louder.

I would list the ones I could see the ground from but don't have the tie! The Chevy Citation I had was probably the worst though. No floor in back seat or rear at all. Nice piece of plywood placed across the drivers pan so I could keep my feet dry.

Well through the 70s and 80s that was questionable at best. I finally said enough when the whole rear passenger door skin flew off at 60 MPH.

and I absolutely LOVE it.

It's things like this that make a truly raw sports car.



Take out the interior from the rear and it'll be even "better"

That was a different cousin.

You see, I had "local" (Ohio) cousins, where the first cousins were off limits ..... but, second and further removed cousins were fair game.

Then I had West Virginia (out of state) cousins, that first cousins were fair game.
