[AT] 4020's coming back?

[rasmith4 at juno.com]

I agree with Farmer.  It is hard to imagine what it would be like to
know why your car didn't work and then to be able to fix  it yourself
and know what you are doing.

I really felt old the other day when I came across the dwell meter in
the garage.  Wonder what I will ever use that for?  At least I can
still use the timing light on my tracotrs.

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...

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?
