Really old cars are cake to work on. Lots of room, no electronics, most systems are really simple. Like some master cylinders are just 1 line hooked up to them. The brakes suck though

Why are brakes hard to work on? Did they even have disk brakes back then?

i think hondas a pretty simple cause thats what i mainly work on.
the worst cars ever to work on a new chrystlers. like the stratus. i had to change the spark plugs on a transvervse 3.5 ltr v6. i had to take off the egr pipe. all connections to the intake manifold and throttle body, took off the intake and resonator, then took of the intake mainfold that had two bracket bolts in the back that need some flex wrench shit to even get back there. (cant remember what the tools called). and it was twice as hard getting it back on cause everything had to line up.
sorry, that was a little too long. just got carried away cause i realized how much i hate new chrystlers.
