Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder.
When I'm holding beer I like the looks of the old sixes too. Just clinging to my God, guns, and GMCs.
Here is one of our local member's 4.2 in a '29 roadster. These pictures are from 2013. He has his new turo engine in it now and the hood still fits. It may be different but it's not ugly.
Well, unless I'm holding a beer.
