A good friend of mine here in KC, has an all-original `65 Fuelie Coupe. It`s an NCRS Top Flight car that is 100% correct down to the nut, bolt and screw.
He claims, of the 711 produced, there are probably about 100 still around that have the correct motor. A beautiful car!
I`ve driven the car... With the 3.08 gear, the Fuelie has
NO low-end torque! Takes forever to get it moving, BUT..... from 4000 - 6000 rpms
LOOK OUT!!! :thumbup:
When that 375hp kicks in top end, that car is a
Screamer!:wink:
He bought the car in 1976.
Many people didn`t like the fuelie because they claimed....
"Couldn`t keep it in tune! Well, my friend Ken doesn`t have that problem because he`s not only a mechanic, but he specializes in Mid-Years..... and re-building fuel injection units on 57-65 Vettes!:tongue:
