I love how these vintage sighting of cars are from 70-90 yr old owners who have some kept these beasts going. I mean, who even does work on a K-Car nowadays? |
Every Kcar that showed up in my dad's shop in the 90's was fully saturated with oil everywhere, and suspension components that had more play than a 90 year old marathon runners knees. As a youth I started to consider perhaps they even came out of the factory like that.
