Re: Roads in "the good old days"
Ken: After watching what they put the car through it might answer some of the questions today's restorers have about how their car got some of its dents it has; if cars went through this level of abuse it's a wonder any of them survived to be restored later. I fully expected to see the car roll over at about the 43 second mark as it eased over the ledge and was surprised to see that it actually did roll over later at a much less difficult point.
Bless our modern paved highways!

If you aren't driving your antique car frequently, you might as well be collecting clocks!!!
