These classic cars have very poor handling (yet this is my experience).
The car (1st gen. 1967) drives okay on a plain pavement, but as soon as it gets to uneven, old pavement with potholes, driving becomes scary - i.e. it just does not keep track, it unpredictably makes turns.
Does anyone know where this imbalance in suspension could originate from? I am sure it is not the steering - it did the same with manual steering box, same with rack&pinion based on J-car rack. Just is unable to keep track, with small or high caster or any front wheel alignment.
Even old CJ7 (jeep) with even greater preconditions for bumsteer, solid front axles, lifted suspension and 35" tires is much more stable on uneven pavements. Anyone?
