To quote Packard53

More money is spent finding a half cocked solution to problems, than if the item in need of repair was fixed in the first place.
Was cruising through some old forum posts and ran across this quote from Packard53. The thread was talking about the Chrysler 727 conversion for the ultramatic. I fully agree with him. Maybe it's the younger Packard owners that haven't developed the fascination for the "way it was" yet that are bound and determined to re-invent the wheel.
For every original part or assembly that is pulled off and dumped, under the guise of " making it better or safer or what ever", for me the interest in the car diminishes. Automotive history is lost. It is no longer what it was.
If you want a car that does 0-60 in 10 seconds, shifts like a Chrysler, has a 12volt negative ground electrical system with A/C etc... I say go buy one and leave the dwindling supply of old cars alone.
What do you guys think?
