They're slow but if you take it into consideration and adjust your driving habits accordingly its ok. I had a 72 220. nice car.
Flagstaff gets cold in the winter (snow/ice) and the heater better work.

Phoenix is 140 miles south, and you better have A/C. 115deg in the summer.

Arizona Does use salt on the roads, so check it out well for rust. never know where that 220 has been it whole life.

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works
