I could do an engine swap on a Model A or early Jeep/GPW. New stuff - no way.

I could probably do one on a mid-90's Jaguar, because I have, at one time or the other, replaced every part under the hood in those unreliable cars.

Don't get me started. I had a late 80's Porsche and had to have every weird metric tool known to man to work on it and still banged up my knuckles on the regular. And who puts the hole to set the timing right under another part that has a tiny screw that mounts it right over the timing hole? Yep, Porsche did. If you didn't tape that hole shut you were possibly going to have to pull the transmission to get to the clutch to get that damned screw out. I never made that mistake but more than a few guys on Rennlist did when working on their cars.
