1979 Dodge Magnum XE GT review from North America
"Love it!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Lean burn was replaced a few months after purchasing the car. Kept hesitating at highway speeds so replaced it.
Weather stripping in T-Roofs has rotted out and unable to find new stipping anywhere.
General comments?
Car is a joy to drive. Handles and rides just like it did the day I bought it. (Original owner too)
