Again, if the informed "want" is to upgrade to corvette MC's and disc brakes and all that, by all means go for it!
But FWIW, I ran my errands today in mid to heavy traffic on a 4-lane State highway with my '49 1-ton, 261, SM420 tranny, 17-inch tubed bias ply tires and *original* Huck Brakes and guess what? Believe it or not, I'm still alive. Imagine that. Not only that, but I can't wait to do it again. Cheated death once again
Did I mention before that I am a professional driver accustomed to dealing with stupid drivers of 4-wheeled vehicles? Maybe that's relevant, maybe it isn't ...
