Subject: Re: ANY M42 DSLR rumors (yet)?
My first car, in 1966 was a 1957 Ford Fairlane 500 with a 312 V8. It was
rusty, and ran very rough. I paid $50 for it. I got it to run well by
relacing the distributor which had a worn bushing and wouldn't hold dwell.
But it had bad steering parts and kind of dragged one front weel.
Nevertheless, I got it up over 100 mph on the interstate. I used it to
deliver pizzas for about a year before the left front steering knuckle
fell off along with the wheel. Luckily, I was preared for that day, and I
had a screwdriver, hammer and chisel in the trunk. So I unscrewed my
license plate, chiseled the VIN tag off of the door post, left the car on
the street,,and walked home. My next car was a 1957 Desota....
But that's another story.
Paul

My very first car, in 1973, was a brand new Datsun 1200. Paid $2300
for it. I had enough cash left over(college student at the time) to
buy rust proofing or a stereo.
It rusted out in 4 1/4 years.:-)
