1975 Chevy Monza coupe. A car the size of a Cavalier with a 350 Cubic Inch V8...Should be a real hot car, or so I thought.
The engine was Detuned to 120 HP....over 60% of the weight on the front wheels in a rear wheel drive car. I couldn't spin the tires in the rain!
Everytime I hit a bump the power steering belt came off...at that point steering was the equivalent to turning an elephant by its trunk.
Small light weight car with a big V8...I couldn't pass anything but a gas station....no power and only 12 MPG after 6 months traded it on a Chevette...but thats another story...
