Administrators BRAAP Posted March 31, 2010 Administrators Share Posted March 31, 2010 Spammers aren't a new breed, they been around since long before you and I were born. More to the point, just little perspective on the what a $1 could buy you in vehicle maintenance back in 1928. Keep in mind, its all relative. It was still as hard of hit on the wallet for fender, a tune-up etc as it is today. Even $.01 to mail a post card was a lot back then.

ModernS30 Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Wow, that's a dream now but then you still needed the bills to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woldson Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Humm, 1928 avg wage 6000. 2009 avg wage 30000. So in 1928 I would make appox 16 bucks a day. That would take me 2 days work to have my engine and tranny, overhauled. So today, you will be will to that for me for 164 bucks!!! Sir I will be so willing to pay that if you are willing to just do my ZX engine! Let me know;) I'm pro capitalist so don't miss understand me.
