I'd like to see it bury the original 110 mph speedometer.

I wonder if the steering/handling components have been updated also? Still has stock, 4 coil original suspension with a big block.

Very cool car!

Do you know why this model was called the 600?
Bet the reasoning doesn't hold any longer.

 A: The '600' name comes from the car's ability to go 600 miles on one tank of gasoline (20 gallon tank and 30 miles/gallon).

The reasoning doesn't hold any more ... not with the big block in it.

If auto manufacturers were able to manufacture and sell 30 mpg cars in 1947 what the hell went wrong and why are we still in this freaking mess ?

Oh I know, we all want a big block confuse

 We have a winner. Yep! 600 miles to a tank of gas.

Nowadays when the manufacturers size the gas tank it's to about 640km ( 400 miles )
