[AT] 4020's coming back?

[Francis Robinson]

	I have a good 4020... What I want is to buy a new model A ford.  They
couldn't reproduce either one though. Some fool would just "have" to make a
few changes and would screw it up. Of course the model A could never get
past the EPA as is and by the time they got it to where it would it would
have 10,000 more components and a computer equipped team of top mechanics
would need a week to change a spark plug...

	You can't go back... All you can do is drag your feet.   :)

John, I haven't heard any such rumour but I can see where a 'new' 4020
might be popular. The old ones certainly hold their value well.
Maybe General Motors should consider resurrecting the 57 Belair?
