John and all,

Great forum question here. Thanks John.
Those of us who are amateur hobbyists ask this question 100s of times annually.

I like every response. I am not trying to be cute, I really do.
BECAUSE each answer given presents an important tension in restoring an old car. After all, this is a metal box that we can drive at dangerous speeds of 30 to 60+ mph and still have a adequate ability to guide, control, and stop safely. (Not even mentioning making it back home without a tow truck.)

Steve, I like your long list. It seems to 'think through' John's question a half a dozen times. It is nice to see in print the thoughts that I've had and each of us have probably had as we figure out what comes next.

Thanks everybody, great stuff here!
Anymore thoughts?
