    People probably felt the same way when cars began to displace horses 120 years ago.
    I think our lifetimes have coincided with the best epoch of the internal combustion engine motor vehicle. And a few here have been fortunate enough to experience some of the best cars this era had to offer.

    Been several done makes sense to me also.

    50k rebuild on a car worth 20k? so otherwise off to the breakers and at best 12mpg around the city or 15mpg on the HWY.
