Default Re: Post '69 Big Block Yenkos???

I lived in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia in the mid 90's. Wish I would have looked around more for muscle cars as there were no rust problems there. I would guess most cars ended up in Jeddah or Riyadh. My brother-in-law lives in Kuwait and frequently travels to Saudi and happens to speak fluent Arabic. I'll tell him to ask around. Super Leaded gas was 25 cents a gallon full serve when I was there and outside of town there were no enforced speed limits with outstanding highways. I regularly traveled in the 100 - 120 mph range and saw 150 mph once. Agree on the crime consequences, "Chop Chop Square" as we called it was 2 blocks from my office. Public executions were a weekly event after the noon prayers on Friday's. No problem with repeat offenders.....
