From a buick 86/12/2023 Or eating sugarcane from a Mandya farmer's field. Ask me about 8 punctures en-route to Mysore and 16 odd hours eating, living & sleeping in a Buick. We drove from Bombay to Bangalore in it along with a heap of household goods then the adventurous fly Gonzy would flit off to Bandipur for the most wild, memorable holidays ever invented. Hood tipped open either way depending on what you wanted to get at weighed a tonne and once fell on a friend's head when he was bleeding air from the fuel line (the chrome adornments served as latches) The suspension was so good she would merely float over bumps and ditches. I learned how to drive in this limo: 3 forward gears, and such a long hood I couldn't see over it for that heart-stopping fewseconds when poised to tip over the small bridge near our house. I was too young to recall the sound of the engine before Dad replaced it with a P6 with a technician in Lonavla- I can, though, recall the long test drives with Deedar Singh- the mechanic- for FE, transmission etc (they had added an overdrive box). Another company famous for its straight 8s was Bugatti. SirAlec: A very rare straight 8 petrol engine, Sir. Wow! thats a very long front end.! wats the specs of this beauty?
