John Walker can answer any possible question about these cars.
I would guess the 32 Ford Coupe is the most understood. It has been around and hotrodded for almost 90 years. Every possible part and variation and mod has been done 100 times. Then most all the American iron of the 60s and 70s are super simple and once almost free they were so cheap, and make a 911 look like a puzzle.

No doubt, the 911 G body is a basic car and pretty easy to repair and mod.
