My car(s) are daily driven and very reliable. But I built them and used Chrysler's technology. No fancy hot rodding stuff or "high performance" things to cause problems.
That being said, I think the best advice he gives to the novice is be ready to learn the "ancient technology".
I can't speak to the difficulty of finding someone to work on them. But I think it is nice to warn people.
Snip..
Many shops will not touch muscle cars (or other truly old cars) for the altogether sensible reason that their techs dont know how to work on them. They know trouble codes and computers. They do not know the fine art of gapping points, of dwell, of epoxying leaking fuel bowls. Do you? Are you confident you can learn how? If not, youll need to find a competent old-school mechanic and (believe me) they are not easy to find. Most people who own muscle cars know how to keep them up and for them, its part of the fun. But it kills the fun of owning a muscle car if the thing wont start, doesnt run well, leaves you stranded and you have no idea how to deal with it
