Hello BJ, who said I know all, not me I am just relating to cars I have owned if our cars broke in those days we had to fix them our selves, I just asked a simple question that was until the other fellow came in and I received some good replies, I did not say I was an expert you put that tag on me, and if you look at my question you will see I asked have you ever owned a ford prefect,,,, they were a dog of a car, oh and I have also owned a willys coupe, your spot would be in the dinky seat............Ken

3rd gear ratio so far away from 2nd that they nearly stalled after the change, no water pump (thermal arrangement), and the most endearing feature was it's ability to rollover.

One thing I'll give to USA-bodied Fords .. from the year dot, to mid-Seventies, they consistently put out good-looking cars, usually with nice interiors (most Mopars and many GMs had BAD interiors). My preference is cars in the sixties and Ford always had nice looking cars at that time, but they tended to loose their way during the muscle-car wars .. they'd wander off and wander back while GM and Mopar were slugging it out. But thru it all they built some handsome cars ..
That being said, I'll stick the sixties .. say '67 'Stang GT or '69 'Stang CobraJet?

from the few american cars i've seen at foreign motor shows and even the mustangs i've driven at sat in, i think there interiors are lacking quite alot. is it just me or do you guys think they are just an afterthought for the us car companies. I know a guy i met working out here loved his toyota sedan (maybe camry??), reckons was better than anything he'd sat in over there

XY Phase 3 - The orange that Moffat's car was in. They looked mean.
But i'd have a XT GT in Green.

Hubby - Group C, likes 351 XE ESP in silver/black. Has a soft spot for those.

Ever sat in a '68 Dodge Charger? Awesome looking cars on the outside .. craptacular interior .. looks like its a quicky design mockup in plastic. Most Fords of the same era would ИИИИe over other US-built cars for "nice" interior (BTW: I'd probably still tak ea Dodge Charger over a 'Stang though .. )
