Richard said the 59 Bird was the finest car he ever drove. Now
for my opinion!
I have
driven and fought to control this vehicle for 8 years now! I've
not driven it for several months with all the other 'new' cars,
and drove it again seriously this week and had to relearn how
to drive it. What I had forgotten was that it wants to go where
IT wants to go and NOT where I want it to go! It's like driving
a power boat, swaying over the waves and lurching onto the wrong
side of the road given half a chance.
With
it's roaring kick-down and wheel-spins on bends when you give
it a little too much gas, you get out of the car with a big sigh
of relief and a terrific endorphin hit! A real stunt drivers'
car...it's heavy, fast, unpredictable, won't stop, smokey, loud
-ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!
The
only car ever to scare the cr*p out of John, my mechanic, when
he first drove it. She's a real handful...and that is why it is
the finest car Cliff Richard and I ever drove! What
a buzz!
