1982 Ford Fairlane zk review from Australia and New Zealand
"Keeps on keeping on"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fuel vapour problem at the carburettor engine will starve under heavy load or after a long trip and going up a hill?
General comments?
It's a large car built for long trips with great comfort.
