The only good that came from the K car was the 2.2 turbo motor than found its way into much cooler bodies later in life. Hell given the choice, I'd take an Omni over a Reliant, Caravelle, Aries etc.
Anyone remember the GLH and GLHS Omni's?
Maureen, if you're brave enough to admit you owned a K car, I guess I should be man enough to admit to owning a Mercury Bobcat.--Brian Chandler--

I had a K-Car in Hi Skool back in the 80's. Gotta love vinyl seats for the cleanup after a hot date.

They were cool cars for what they were, much like the SVO.--Brian Chandler--

The SVO is way cooler than the GLHS. Wasn't "GLHS" an acronym for "Goes Like Hell Shelby"?
I always liked the SVO, and I would gladly own one. They are pretty rare and always get looks from those that know.

GLH - Goes Like Hell
GLHS - Goes Like Hell Somemore.
In 1986 the SVO was rated at 205 hp. It's V8 counterpart at 215. The SVO had 4 wheel disk brakes, 16", 5-lug wheels and Koni Shocks from the factory. The GT? Drums, 15" 4 lugs, and standard Motorcraft fare. It was nearly 10K more which pretty much shot the car in the foot.--Brian Chandler--

I didn't think the sheetmetal was thick enough for beer can production.

I had one of those too.... You don't really have to saw them in half -- just wait a bit longer and it'll rust itself in half..
