164!!!!! My first car!!!! Loved it - but unsuitable for a rally car. Great, cool, old DD tho, with a ton of character. I've seen a total of about 10 in my entire life, total.

Justin, I have 4 242's; two are nice. One a completely rust free Tennessee car. One a clean GA car. One a so-so maybe parts car, and one '80 242GT that is doable. All are complete cars. Also, have a bunch of body parts, early flat hoods, etc.
I'll e-mail you pics.

It's an auto though.. but you'd have to do some work anyways cause it has the B20 which is a lot more work to turbo.

How about 4th overall 1972 POR Driver Dick Zwitzer just behind the winning Jeeps.

He lost to Jeeps!
What does that say about the rest of the field?

Who, who, who, and Buffum?

Addmittedly, in 1972, a 164 might have been a pretty decent platform. But that's before my time, and before 240s came out.


btw, I'd love to have another 164 if I didn't already have so many fucking projects!

When considering a suitable rally platform, I always consult early 70's results lists... haha
