Steve The AC 180/185 had the AC 301(2800)engine. They handled pretty good but where slow on the road. The power director on them was a short lever on the right side of the dash. It had real strong detents. It was real hard to start smoothly. My wife refused to drive it after the first few times she ran it on the square baler.
