When I first got my 71 s.b. over a year ago, I was looking in the library for any info that I could find. I came upon book called LEMONS- THE WORLDS WORST CARS by Jacobs. I was disappointed to find the t-3 listed in there. The author described 'the poorly designed cooling system" which he stated was inadequate. He gave the t-1 as the shining example of engineering that it is, but said the t-3 was essentially a mistake. Something about trying to force the engine to fit into the space required. Of course love is blind and I ignored the critique. Now I see some of you stating how many miles you've racked-up on your cars and I can see how wrong Mr. Jacobs was. Everyday ( and this is no exaggeration) somebody asks me about the car, not to mention the stares. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Search old messages on the Web!
