True, but there some folks out there that really are absolutely clueless (and don't realize it).


That is why even back then as now there are places to take your car to be fixed.

At a car show several years ago with my '51 2 door with a 226 flathead six. It was stock at the time with an iron head and one carburetor. Two older gentlemen walked up and looked under the hood for a minute and one turned to the other and said "why on earth would someone go to the trouble of putting a Plymouth six in a '51 Ford?" I tried explaining that it was the original engine and it was a Ford. He wasn't buying it. As he walked away he was still ranting about a Plymouth engine in a Ford.
