Great car with great potential ruined by some California granny over speeding a cloverleaf and spinning out. Ralph Nader, a hungry lawyer, writes a book about this accident/crash, "Unsafe at Any Speed" which kills the car and gets the "Consumer Protection" bureaucrat agency started.

Most sports-minded drivers and hot-rodders bought an Empi "camber compensator" which eliminated the axle-tuck/rollover thing. Had GM limited the wheel travel it never would have been much of a problem

The 60/40 rear weight bias still gave the car a frightening oversteer when pushed but definitely similar to Porche, VW and Renault Dauphine. A driver interested could deal with it but was beyond most drones driving in this country in the 60's.

The engines these days are quite popular with home-built aircraft people... big power at less money...

If you have one for sale, or know of one for sale, please send me a message.

I dont have a People, but I'm selling my Yager 200, if interested.

I knew the story of course, but didn't realise that they'd made a film about it.  One for the list I think!
Surprise at the end!
