I came into this with almost zero. If you ask around the web forums, some will say I still have zero.

What I did have coming in was the advantage of a "superpower", namely autism. Asperger's syndrome to be exact. I obsess over certain things. I started obsessing over Model As and binged on all the info I could find. That was before Fordbarn. And, I have a photographic memory, so I scanned all the factory information I could find, then later focus on the details from the images burned into my memory, which I still go back to frequently.
