I learned to drive a big car in the Wildcat, and later at 19, drove the Centurion from home near Nashville to Miami, then on to Key West on a scuba diving trip. So I had some first-hand experience with them. Maybe I have a little dog in this fight, because as a kid, we had a tan 4-door ’65 Wildcat, and then later, my father brought home a ’71 Centurion.

I know that some people still don't have access to high speed connections but they are fewer each year and pictures on this site still need to be larger. Most of the images on this site would have been adequate in the mid eighties but they are way too small for current computer screens, current internet connections that most users of this site are expected to have.
