jeep started buying amc 232s and 327s in '65, after sidelining the
tornado ohc230.

"   i lived in toledo in the early 70s and i recall Javelin-AMXs

" 73ish.

now that's a bit o' intelligence i hadn't heard before!

" course that's all a little vague, didn't know i should have

ah, hindsight...

"      a fellow teenage friend had connections and got a summer job at
" the plant making big UAW $.  a job we all wanted.  he told stories of
" how they'd work as fast as possible, get their number required done
" in 4hrs, then play cards for 4hrs.
