On Ford products they used venturi ported vaccume-they didn't even have mech advance until maybe 1957-------it was reverse of what/how GM did it


also ----pre unleaded gas and cats


even before pcv valves-road draft tubes


at least most were 12 volts by then but still generators and wet batteries


manual roll up windows


some cars had tip out vent windows


how about fender mount mirrors


57 first year for 14 in tires ( all were tubeless by then)


pushbutton radio (am) and rear speaker option but not sterio


no quad headlights ( except Lincoln )


Metric system was here-7mm plug wires, 14, 18mm spark plugs
