I long for the good old days.

My 40/mpg Honda is down and I've been driven the Falcon (not happy 'bout that). But at least I can work on my Falcon and is usually cheap fix(compared to todays prices) and everything is right there in plain sight and easly accessable. Thats why I love the old cars . Well that and a few other reasons---They acttuallly had some stying then. Today most look like gumdrops.
