I just replaced the blower motor in my '81 last weekend. A $50 fleabay part, and a couple of hours labor total, including cleaning out 28 years worth of leaves, bugs, whatever... So that's not a big deal...

My main concern are engines, transmissions, and to a lesser extent, A/C.

The thing I love about these cars is that most of the repairs/maintenance are mechanical. I can deal with mechanical, but when it comes to electronic, I am in uncomfortable territory...
