Re: [Amc-list] Le Wreck (R5's)



Always wanted an R5 turbo!
What a pocket rocket...
Couldn't be much worse then working on a regular R5.
I did a few engine overhauls etc; on those. yuck..
My now wife actualy had one her dad bought her.
She kept it one year after the warranty expired, it cost her $1800 to keep it on the road for that one year!
