Not old enough to retire, or even begin thinking about it, but there are times that I long for my first car. 62 Chevy Bel-Air, 283, 2 speed power glide tranny. Manual steering, brakes, and everything else. Points and condenser under the distributor cap. You could actually see the engine and access any part of it without any trouble.

I suppose there has been a lot of progress since that time, but those old cars were a whole lot easier to work on.
