I'm lost on older cars. Adjusting fueling/ignition on a computer screen > fiddling with carb/distributor.

No kidding. by the time you buy all the oil and filter, then jack the car up and find a place to dispose of the oil, its way better to wait 15 mins at jiffy lube and not have to worry about anything.
What do you call that latest Trauma anno btw? Im digging that maroon-ish orange color

Until they put the wrong oil in and cut a few years off your bearing life. Or leave the old filter gasket stuck to the engine so you leave a trail of oil down the highway. Or reinstall your drain plug with an impact gun and rip the threads out of your oil pan.
Most people never have issues with them, and it is convenient. But yeah. You get what you pay for.

Ugh, the term 'all original' is used way too loosely now-days.

Just walking around this convention, the sales pitching of some of these sellers is borderline un-cool.
I've already deterred four prospective buyers from spending a lot of unnecessary extra money. Waiting to get kicked out soon.
