Yeah, but how much did you make an hour in 1960's?   Would you be content to
make the same wage today?   It is called inflation (like 18% under Carter).

 

I still have a 1961 parts house catalog for English and European cars.
Amazing the changes.  A Lucas starter was $37, a complete Borg & Beck clutch
$36.   Of course, at the time I was making $225 a month, so it all washes
out.
