1961 Dodge Lancer 770 review from North America
"A wonderful family car for cruising and showing off"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Overall it is a great car. I have only had the car for a couple months.
Only minor things have happened such as:
Broken park lever cap.
Gas gage failing to operate properly.
Wear on the original seats.
Speedometer broken.
General comments?
The car is very catchy and draws a lot of attention.
For it's time it handles very well and is reliable.
Its interior and exterior need help, but the engine is incredible.
Lancers can be a steal if you look. I found mine for $800.
