    I use bare feet like Fred Flinstone. No floorboards or brakes.

    Good for you keeping it stock. I saw an all stock '40 Willys a few years back at the C.H.R.R. and couldn't believe it! I had never seen a stock one in all my years.
    We need to have a reference point.

    If it's got stock brakes why not just fix 'em? You ain't goin' fast with that flat six anyway, even if it does say Supersonic on it.
