Of course Lane County loves Rep. Peter DeFazio. He is known to quote Lord of the Rings when making political analogies, and he drives around Springfield in his Dodge Dart with his dogs lolling out the windows on his way to chat constituents up while shopping at Bi-Mart. What more could you ask for?

My 1964 Clark Cortez had the 225, with a carter side-draft carburetor — the same one[s] the used on the 1953 Corvette.
OTOH when I was in high school we went into Salem on Friday nights in a red 1960 Valiant station wagon. It was a friend's fathers. I'd park the bullet-nose Studebaker, and when we got down to the pavement, we'd jack up the front and crank down the torsion bars, then raise it up when we got back.
