  • 175 MPH 1956 President

    The following is taken directly from the ad:

    "The 1956 version had a totally revised body and the engine size had increased from 4.2 to 4.7 litres. This engine now produced a healthy 210 SAE BHP and the heavy car could reach 175 mph."

    Boy, never knew one of these things could run with a fully prepped R-3 Avanti.

    Speaking of fairy tales, did anyone ever see the 56 President in Penthouse Comice in 1997? I have erased the nude parts.
