I wasn't aware there was such a thing as a ST coupe. Anyone know for
sure? All I ever saw were 4 dr. Also, if it is a model 80, I doubt that
is horsepower. Finally, I doubt it would make a good tow vehicle, unless
one gave it an engine transplant.
Questions aside, I think they are some of the classiest looking cars from
postwar England. If it were closer I would not be able to resist going
to check it out.
