I have no idea what a mint condition 40 Ford would go for today. Back when I had mine I could "fix" anything on it with a crescent wrench, pliers or a screw driver. One weekend a friend and I pulled the engine in our garage. Just to see if we could! We all learned a great deal about the mechanics of those simple cars. Today you need a manual just to get the hood open. That's why I take my Buick to Bernie at the Goodyear Store and just walk away until he calls me to come and get it. lol

I had a Buick station wagon in the 80s and just loved that car. So comfortable, hauled everything. I wish they would make that wagon again.

However, when the transmission failed at 80K miles, we got a Land Cruiser (before the style changed.) I was so unhappy to lose that wagon.
