Definitely not underpowered. That thing was fast as hell with the 455 and Hurst dual gate. God I loved that car. Mine was also yellow with black on the scoops of the ram air hood and black convertible top and interior. Also had a '70 Supreme convertible. Though not as fun, that was a great car as well. I would love to get another one but the have gotten so damn expensive these days. Heard recently of a '70 442 going $130K

mines not worth nearly as much as that its a ok driver and 68 (67 - 69 ) came with the 400ci except for h/o,s they were beefed up to 455 by hurst you can get somethuing decent between 8 to 15 grand

I have thought about it. Really don't care if it is a real 442 or not.

Well I have only test drove the H3. Steep freeway onramps and some slight grades. It seemed to be real smooth and power up to speed with no problems or strain. It doesn't have the power like my 3/4 ton sub with a 454 and a few enhancements, but the gas mileage tradeoff seems to be worth it! Not to mention the cool factor.
