My favorite for quiet running was a 1948 Studebaker at 65 in overdrive.
Flat head again so no notice able engine noise.
I miss Detroit iron.

Um...that '48 would be South Bend Steel.

Or Los Angeles.



OK,
Close but no cigar.
The fun thing about the Studebaker and the 1961 Rambler was that a
friend was actually leaning on the Rambler and asked to hear it run.
He almost fell over when I said it was running. I replaced the generator
with an alternator, breaker-less ignition, and super quiet mufflers. The
Rambler was about as stripped down as I have ever seen an American car
and the Studebaker was an example of how good American cars could be.
