Too much horsepower... I oversteared off freeway.

Coffee, not only is the handling porked on those but those things suck in a  collision. I T-Boned one of those at an intersection once in my F-150 and he was totaled while I only suffered a scratched bumper. I'm not sure what happened to the driver of the cart because I was at fault so I never stopped.

I did a little research.. AMC made a 250 small block v8.

265 wasn't in production in 1966, was it?
