Showing my age here but mine would be a 1970ish Jensen Interceptor FF with the 6.3 litre Chrysler V8 engine, thew torque was amazing, felt like you were in first gear all the time it was so fast, I did a tune up on it and too kit on the motor way, 120 mph was like 50, fantastic!!

^^TommyTee Is this one of them funky 'single seater' (wheel chair) two stroke things, where you spin the engine backwards (two sets of points) for reverse thrust? If it is what is the correct name for them please?
