56 Bel Air
In 63 my step-dad sold his '56 Bel Air for a '63 Chevy pick up for $300.
Dealer bought it for his brother. He called an hour later, wanted to know what oil he used. He replied Phillips 66 Tropic Artic 10W30 in summer 10W20 in winter. Swear I still see that car driving around.
The 63 pickup had the same problem as my 66 Impala. The 3 speed gears would lock up and you had to get under the under the hood and had work them back and forth to unlock them.
I showed up on a first date with oily and bleeding fingers as my car locked in gear in front of her house.
Everything they add to a car is something more to go wrong and always seems to be more expensive to fix.
