How many times do I have to say it? "Period Correct" doesn't always mean bone stock...

Saw a really nice 1953 Ford F100 for sale the the other day. It was jet black with chrome wheels. It also had a Mustang II front clip-which gave it front disc brakes and power rack and pinion steering. It had a warmed over 302 V8 and a C4 automatic trans. Typical late '70's "Restification". Ford guys would vomit-but the other way was a Chevelle front clip with a big-block Chevy / TH400 swap. Either one made the old trucks blisteringly fast-and made them stop and handle decent. This was par for the course in the late '70's. Ditto for a '55-57 Chevy with a "Pete and Jakes" straight front axle and disc brakes, and a snarling small or big-block and radiused rear wheelwells and big tires. 'Vettes with headers and sidepipes were very common. Firebirds with Rat motors were common too.  So if you see a nice car modified in this fashion but well preserved, it's as much a piece of history as a Concours "Just as it Left the Factory" Mustang with a repro Autolite Battery and Coker Tire Firestone Wide Ovals. I'd much rather see a '69 Nova with a 350 with headers and a "30-30" solid-lifter cam,an Edelbrock "Scorpion" manifold and a 750 Holley, and a 3.11 1st / 2.02 second geared "Saginaw" 4-speed out of a Vega with Cragar mags and traction bars that was built in 1975 than one with an LS3 / 4L80E and 4-wheel disc brakes and a DSE front and rear subframe that was built in 2012!!  A "Macho T/A" with a Hooker chrome rollbar, Hooker headers,a "Doug Nash" 5-speed, and 15" "Snowflake" wheels is way more '70's cool than a T/A with an LS3 and a 6-speed and 20 inch wheels!!  If your having a "Disco" party your going to play Donna Summer, not Beyonce'!!!  Capice?  Mastermind
