I am just getting started into the hotrod scene. I have yet to decide what car I am going to end up with (wanted a highboy for a while but my state says fenders and hood). I think that right now I would like a '40 coupe with a flathead. What I would like to know is can the flathead be reliable? I would probably put a couple thousand miles a year on a rod if I built one (there to drive right?) and I don't want to be stuck all the time. Any stories about yours?
