If you really object to tinkering with cars to keep them running, don't
buy *any*
American iron made in '58.

We had a '58 Chevy with a 283 in it. My dad put 100k miles on it and then
he sold it to a family in Madison County who put another 100k on it before
it was junked. We had a '59 Chevy too. It had a 283 V-8. I would sneak
it out in the dark of night and do 120 in it up Middle Fork Straight.
