In 1969 I bought a 1951 Ford DeLuxe sedan for $75. Had a straight 6 flat head. The back seat was HUGE, you could sit in the back, stick your legs straight out and your feet not touch the back of the front seat. The water pump was shot, so I could only drive it from home to the parking lot of the local hamburger joint before it over heated and I had to let it sit for a couple hours to cool down before I drove it home. Did that all summer before I joined the military and sold it for $100. Never did fix the water pump.
we called the hamburger joint the slut hut, lol
