I beat the snot out of it.
I pulled Dukes of Hazzard flying car routines in it.
Put a couple of hundred thousand miles on it.
I sold it to a coworker with 250,000 + miles on it
by taking for a ride and launching it over some railroad tracks
in Yaphank, NY.
After the car landed back on the road he said 'I'll take it!!!!!!'
Measly 108hp.
Imagine how much fun it would of been with a new
MB 415HP 2 litre I4 under the hood.
With a 9 speed torque converter transmission.
And a dual pair of real brakes.
