235 65 15 not 215 35 15

Agree that BFG and others make 215 65 15s but the original post was 235 65 15s and no one makes that size. That is why I asked if there was a typo.

FYI 215 65 15s are OEM on all the 1983-84 HOs...

RPM

Not true. Both the Muncie & the T400/T350 have a 1:1 top gear so cruise RPM is the same.

Depending on your tire diameter &...

Colonnade values

The value of the Colonnade cars is riding and especially on the 1973 model.

If you are valuing this car at $5-7000 USD I think you are way under its value.

OK

My apologies I thought that it had been concluded that 160 was the number. So then we know that 455 auto cars were available with Ram Air we just don't know how many were made. Thanks.

thanks

I appreciate your input. Investment potential is a portion of the decision but not the only factor. I have always preferred the Formula to the TA. However I think I could love either.

Seattle is a long ways from Calgary but I have not ruled it out. That car is the same color combo as the 73 Esprit I sold. The 73 is a nicer car to my eyes.
