“Wash Will”: We bought a nice Chevette based GrandDuchess with 4 speed
this past year. Love it….will need some more fine tuning in Spring…very cold
start-up, but just purrs on the road. Handles much nicer than rear engined
VW systems…and just feels more “legitimate” !!! It also looks very “TD”
authentic. You’ll love the results and the feeling of ‘original’ with front
engine and 4 speed. I’d have to say the Pinto 4 cylinder might be just as
good, but we didn’t have the opportunity of the option. So, go for it….enjoy
and play out your pleasure with the TD. Bob & Paula
