Yes, but how many IIIf's can do a 1/4 mile in less than ten seconds 
under their own power?

I once owned a Trans Am with a high compression (12.5:1) 455 that do the 
1/4 in less than 12 seconds on Sundays' and still get me to work on 
Mondays'. Of course the damn thing required aviation fuel even when not 
at the track.
