Is
'practical roadster' an oxymoron? Maybe not.
Excerpts from an article by TONY SWAN
October 2002
It's the middle of October 2002 It's here. Well, almost
here. Even as we speak, skilled hands are torquing bolts
and attaching electrical gear to pilot-production editions
of the Chevy SSR sports-roadster pickup-truck hot-rod boulevard
cruiser (fill in any extra descriptors you like, we don't
really know what to call it, either).
Is
it a truck? Is it a street rod? Is it a sporty convertible?
Is it retro or modern? Does it matter? Irrespective of where
you think it fits, two important questions come to mind
as the production SSR comes to market: How does it drive?
And will people line up to buy it? The first we can now
answer; the second is up to you..
