I absolutely hate FWD cars and 4 cylinder engines, but it was college time and my parents wouldn’t cosign a loan for anything cool, whatsoever! Apparently, emasculation is the path to good grades! So I traded the 72 Chevelle in for this, a Citation. Oh the misery! All that said, it was a four speed car and I ran the wheels off of it and still had all but no problems out of it at all.
While at a party in Anderson Indiana, one evening, someone was kind enough to smash my driver’s door. Although the red paint on one of the cars rear bumper told the story getting a cop in that town to do work was a whole other story. So, I stripped her down and did a black and custom stripes theme. Money was really tight in those days so this project took about a year to complete.
