<VV> Sprint 6

[Thesuperscribe at cs.com]

In autumn of '68 I looked at a used '66 or so Le Mans with the Sprint 6 and a 
4-speed. The idea of a 6 instead of a V-8 intrigued me (which is why I 
inquired about ordering a new Camero with a 6/4-speed the year before) and it ran 
nicely. But it smelled of gasoline, which the owner didn't want to fix, so I 
passed on it.

But it might have been a neat car.
