I had the car resprayed, complete velour interior, disc brake 9", 302C with a 4-speed single-rail gbox. I spent more money modifying this car than any of the others.

I was a bit of a Hemi nut in 1985 Nice looking Centura there...I had a KB with a 245 in it for a while, that was pretty quick little car...Always wondered what one with an Injected 265 would run

I didnt sell the car t'll my late 20's and just kept it as my weekend car.The only problem was it was over powered ( Centuras were designed as 4Cyl's) and it kept throwing trailing arm bushes which were a to replace.
