I've got to differ.
I'm old enough that I started in wrenchin' helpin' my grandfather as a kid. Learned some there. Got older and had to try and keep whatever wreck I had for a car goin'. Biggest project back then was rebuildin' the motor in a '64 Beetle. No web boards like this. What's a manual? By buddy didn't know or understand as much then about these things as I do now, but he knew more than I did at the time, I learned from him, too, and we got 'er done.
Point is that there's lots of folks with sufficient mechanical skills to work on the older machines who may never have heard of the need to plane a head, and who may never have had occasion to pull a valve, but they have the ability to learn and to do it.
Folks have been walked through a lot more technical stuff on these boards.
I, for one am willin' to help where I can. If it seems like it's boring others, I'll move it off to email.
