I still have my Dwell meter which I generally used to rotate distrubuter to "time" the engine after setting point gap. Great memories. I still use my feeler gage on small OHV engines, so it's not put out to pasture!It's been awhile since I gapped the points.
The only thing I really miss is the styling of the old cars.
I've been a part of this group since may when I purchased my Maverick. And I'm convinced that some people worry unnecessarily and figure they NEED to find something to stress over. The truth is that Modern vehicles simply don't need us to constantly maintain and baby them. It's not 1990 anymore. Check you oil and coolant level regularly and change it as recommended by Ford or a bit earlier. Keep your tires inflated, inspect brakes when you rotate your tires. You can generally follow the maintenance schedule based on your use as given in the owners guide. Your Maverick will be just fine. If you need to constantly tinker under the hood of your vehicle, buy and old car. As for your maverick Ride and Enjoy
