Did we really love those old cars that eat up starters and batterys because of the automatic choked carbs that never worked below 20 degrees and the intake manifold crossover that was always clogged with carbon and the oil drain back holes plugged with gunk so the valve covers leaked profusely. Engines barely made it to 100 K and transmissions barely 75K. Mechanical fuel pumps with ruptured diaphrams pumping the crankcase full of fuel. Maybe it's cause I live in the north. Old technology cars are a pain in the drain up here in the north in the winter. I have a frame-off restored '66 GTO and love it to death , but I sure would hate to have to drive it every day, summer and winter, as my main transportation. Those old RWD cars were nothing but a pain in the snow. (and I learned to drive in the '60,s and they were lots of fun to spin around , but now I am older and they are a pain.... These new ones start and run and drive as good at 100K as they did when new. I've had some with original plugs and starters at 100K and still started like new. Nostalgia is nice but not for everyday use.
