Mine was born with 4:10 gears, I had them swapped for 3:54 to make it a little more driveable. I like the original car better than the new one. The 70 car is smaller than the new one too. When a good deal falls my way I'll buy a new one. Hopefully I can find a white one. The people driving the new ones stare at mine when I do drive which isnt very often considering resale is well over 100,000 now.

You know, the more coveted and valuable my old '72S became, the less I enjoyed driving it. Now, it...and the accompanying burden, are both gone.
