I owned one of these with a 3 speed manual. Very much a sleeper. 11:1 compression. Fast in it’s day for a stock sedan. 40 in first over 70 in second. Never tried to max our third but well over a hundred. These cars were dangerous as they didn’t have the handling/ suspension nor Braking. Needed. Fun though!
