This car is great to drive around in when it wants to run. The cabin is very roomy and the seats are comfortable.
On the other hand, the car stalls when you slow down or sometimes when you stop at a light; but when I take it to the garage it always runs perfect for them. I wish I had bought a car like this from a more trustworthy person.
Your car probably has a 440 cubic inch engine producing close to 400 horsepower. A couple of minor mods and these things will produce over 500 pounds of torque. Usually the only things that go wrong with these engines are the carb or distributor. Get it running it right and you will be able to outrun most of these Japanese buzz boxes on the road, at least until you mave to turn!
I had a 1970 New Yorker that stalled when I stopped. If I remember correctly, it was because the power-brake caused the vacuum to drop on the motor. Which of course caused it to lean out and die. I think the problem was a bad power-brake booster. Put a vacuum gauge on the vacuum tree and check to see if it drops when you apply the brakes.
