Well now wait a minute, if we don’t discuss this “stupidity” here then where? Not at the dinner table or the bowling alley or on the golf course. It’s meant to go right here on an enthusiast’s forum.

I’m not good at explaining why I hate to see vintage Fords from the golden era gutted and filled with engineering from other manufacturers but it just does bring up the aw’ shit! feelings every time. Like there’s another one gone. They don’t make them anymore you know?

Updating a Flathead era Ford or a Model A or T with another more modern Ford driveline doesn’t seem like it goes against nature so much. It seems kind of a natural progression. Stuffing a Chevy or caddy or any other bastard motor brings forth Frankenstein images.

You all may not feel the same I’m just telling you there’s a few and maybe quite a few people who agree with me but are either afraid to say it or smarter than me and just ignore the butchers that destroy the Ford outta their Ford till they end up with a silhouette car eventually.
