So very true.
But, back then I could do a complete rebuild with all machine work and all and have a NEW engine in that 69 383 RoadRunner and not have the price of a new (small) home invested! Or pull a good engine at the boneyard, yea maybe a lowly 400 but none the less..

Yes our modern engines are made for miles and the old engines were made for smiles! The modern cars should last, look what they cost!!! :BangHead: :steering:
