Re: Model A shops
Those who oppose the metric system are half awake. I wonder if they have worked on any of the newer USA made Ford, GM, or Chrysler cars lately. If they have they probably had to use metric tools to do so. The US of A is probably the only country on the planet not officially using the metric system. In case you do not realize it, indirectly we are using the metric system as a result of our huge amount of international product consumption and trade. Working in single digits and tens is a lot easier then remembering water freezes @ 32F and boils @ 212F versus 0C and 100C in the metric system.
