1. Overall driving experience?
2. Ease of entry/exit for tall & large driver?
3. Handling precision?
4. Noise level cruising at 70mph?
5. Ride smoothness or lack thereof?
1. I smile whenever I drive any old car. usually when some asks how my 69 Z-28 drives, I say, Awesome.
2.At 6'4" and 275 lbs, I kinda let myself relax and fall into my 69. My 74 is much easier, I just don't have to squash up so much to get in. By the way it took alot of practice to get in my 69 as one smooth movement as not to knock my right ear onto the top of my head.
3.With the Gulstrand Mod. my 69 is a great handleing car. What it lacks in handleing is more than made up in kicking the rear end out coming out of a curve (I think that is the apex to you Wine and Cheeze boys)
4. Its loud. I like the windows down so I can hear the exaust or just the wind blowing.
5. My 74 Z drives like a Caddy. My 69 drives like, well, a 69 (see 1 & 3). My PT 69 will probably be as rough as a PT car will get. It will love smooth roads and hate bumpy ones. I won't care as long as its done.
