Back in the late '70's my dad was starting to restore the '40 2 dr. sedan he bought back in 1940. He also had a rusted out '66 Galaxie with a 289 and overdrive. When I told him he should put that 289 into the '40 he simply said "Then it wouldn't be a '40 Ford anymore." I thought about that a lot over the years and now that I've inheirited his other '40, I say the same thing to people who think I should put in a Cxxxy, but they don't get it. (Why is it always the same mindless comment: "put a C---y in it"? Brainwashed by the street rod magazines, I guess.)
