"A dream car!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Steering system needed rebuilding at 117,000 miles due to abuse.

The engine needed an overhaul at 125,000 miles due to abuse from the previous owner.

The power steering pump failed in the winter at 121,000 miles

General comments?

After minimal engine modifications (removal of certain emission components) I got 25 miles per gallon in the city in the summer.

This car goes very fast, especially for its size. It rides like a dream. A good family car, with the heart of a hot rod, it's one of a kind.

What kind of emissions controls did you remove? I have a Caprice that could use similar modifications.

How much horse power would a 307 5.0 V8 in the 1986 parisienne put out?
