Re: Getting Started - 51 Super Sport
Thanks Jeffrey! Can't make the meet this year, but will try to plan better for next year. Who knows, I might even have a car to bring. Ted DellaCamera was kind enough to visit the car with me

Charlie was a friend, jolly fellow, with a big heart. Met him when I was on a date at the Fairmont movie theater - which his family owned - in 1960, renewed friendship over Crosleys in the 70's. I

Re: Shocks
Most modern shocks are gas pressurized and virtually all modern cars are several times heavier that the Crosleys. That leads to a harsh ride and also increased frame stress.
