Little Old to use as a taxi.  I'd like my next find to be an F-body taxi.  
Sorta have a collection of HD MOpars.  Also would be interestedin, (I found 
in a chrysler brochure) something about ordering Aspen/Volare police wagon 
units.  Man... If there is really one out there... I WANT IT..

That's the whole fun of the car..  Doesn't have great takeoff speed, but WOW 
get it up to were the 120 CERTIFIED speed ends... it still have more left in 
the motor.  I went side by side with a buddy in his 72 Chrger Rallye with the 
150 Speedo(360-4bbbl)  I was going well past the 120 speedo..  Maybe as high 
as 135-140... 
At those speeds the car was stable.. But we were afaid of his charger.. (Too 
much frontend lift, and his supension was getting very unstable at those 
Speeds..

AB> > Fast... I don't even want to start on that subject..  
AB> 
AB> And what is your quarter mile time then?  Still got the stock motor? 318 
AB> or
AB> 360?
318 2BBL...  It is the HD POLICE 318 anyone that can get me info on the exact 
detail hat involve the 318 Interceptor..
If I wanted to get the power, I got a 78 360 4bbl Police intake and 
Thermoquad.  Or if I want to replce the LEAN Burn and go with conventional 
electronic ignition.. Got a 69 Holley 600 Vac. Secondaries from a 383
Quarter mile times... about 15-16 seconds.  With those rear end gears and the 
SPECIAL POLICE trannny with the WIDE ratio planetarys in it..  THIS CAR WAS 
BUILT TO GO FAST---  LIKE in high speed pursuits..  It really won't peel the 
asphalt back..
