That was (is) an awesome car.   It actually had a tunnel-ram intake with 
sidedraft Weber carbs.   It was hopeless below 3000-3500 rpm, spitting and 
stumbing and falling all over itself.   Then WHAM!!!!!!!!

It felt like you got rear-ended!   That was a memorable ride.   And Howard 
was a memorable guy.   Very much missed. :<(
