"Motorweek" 1980's convertibles
« on: June 10, 2016, 18:19:31 »
Im hooked on these old broadcasts of "Motorweek". This one shows how domestic convertibles of the 80's were really just hacked up coupe's with the tops cut off. A far cry from our cars that were designed As convertibles from the ground up.  ;)

Those old K-car chrysler convertibles were known for their extreme cowl shake/bulkhead flex.
