OMG you're are so right!! I didn't realize it till this fantastic posting..
1600? what was I thinking? Further more what about those hideous 1500, who
in there right mind would be caught dead, backing up the slow lane of
course, in one of those? Single carb, drum brakes Huh! Off to the crusher
with all of them!!

Give me Solex and a 5 speed or give me death!!!

Just kidding (kind of)

I've seen several ground up restorations of 1600s and 2000s. All things
being equal, the cost is very similar. So, other than "because it's been in
my family for years", or "because I like 1600s better than 2000s", why are
some people pouring a ton of money into restoring a stock 1600? Why not go
with a 2000? Same car, but with more gears and more power.

Just curious.
