Dials with needles seems soooo much more appropriate |
Re: O.T. Biggest Pet Peeve In pre 1953... I pretty much agree with all of the above. I had quite a few Chevs in my younger years, some of them pretty neat. (Wish I still had that 63 SS convert 409-425!) I NEVER put any Ford parts on them, and I worked in a Ford dealership in those years, so I don't understand this Chev everything stuff. We still have a bunch of Ford units, in spite of the "new stuff". I'm constantly reminded that I am "just a Ford guy", and that I'm not very smart because of it. Then comes arguments, cause I have been known to speak first, and think later. Oh well, it's a cross we carry to drive a better built car or truck.
Another thing I don't get is buying an old car/truck, and making the undercarriage and drivetrain like a new one. Just buy a new vehicle if that's what you want. |

I'm ok with bucket seats in a truck though. Got an old International with a pair of "captains chairs" that a previous owner installed and they are so comfortable. Plus the mice don't like them as much as the original seats. |

Just wish they already came from Ford like it, that would save me haffing to do it. Martin. |
Re: O.T. Biggest Pet Peeve In pre 1953... Over head valve V8 engines. These cars/trucks were known as Ford V8's, because of the engine. And that engine is a flathead!

When I bought my F-1, a guy local to me bought another, nicer stock F-1 and ripped all the stock stuff off to put in a 454 and a bunch of other crap and painted it red with some lame 1980's lazer stripe. I bought a bunch of his stock stuff at a discount. Sometimes something has to die so another may live. |
