Yeah, I remember those grease fittings, and wheel bearings that had to be adjusted, and brakes that didn't work that well in the rain, and engines that were lucky to last 50,000 miles before they needed to be freshened up, and vacuum windshield wipers, and non-synchro transmissions, and manual chokes, and carburetors that required frequent adjustments, and points and condensers, and coils that shorted out when it rained, distributor caps that had to be replaced.

Lots of things I remember and miss almost none of them.
