In 1975 I purchased a 1973 2002. I wanted a 2002 after reading "
Turn your hymnals to 2002, by David E. Davis Jr in 1968.
I was not disappointed. Initially friends teased me about driving a shoe box. I would take them for a drive out in the country and country and educate them. The 2002 would handle sweeping curves with no fuss whatsoever at speeds that caused the uninitiated to flinch. I would fly through such a curve about 30 MPH above the posted limit. After my passenger recovered I'd comment, "Not bad for a shoebox".
