***I had no raditor/fan/belt combination in front to get clogged or debris filled,

it would not have been so bad, but a low sportscar***

VW? Karmann Ghia?

VW almost. It was a first year Porsche 914 before they ruined them. They started out 30% Porsche / 70% VW but by ‘73 they were almost all VW. With 4.6” of ground clearance it was like you were sitting 7” above the asphalt, but boy would they corner, track and brake. You could snake through traffic with the most precision of anything I have ever had — not a lot of power but they only weighed about 1990 lbs as I recall.
