[Shop-talk] Of mice and...Jeeps!

My 56 chevy truck that has been in the family for 3 generations has no oil
filter, drum brakes, 3 on the tree shifting, oil bath air filter, and of
course hand crank windows - runs like a champ to, even with the original
ignition system.  The great thing is the throttle pull on the dash - the
original cruise control!!

While we're on the subject, does anybody know when was
the last car sold with:

1: A flathead engine?

2: No full-flow oil filter?

3: Mechanical brakes?

4: Front drum brakes?

5: No power brakes?

In a few years, we can ask about manually-cranked
windows...
