 KW> I always wondered about running unleaded gasoline in a pre-1974 engine.

Never had any problems with it myself. I've read that the biggest worry with
older cars is that the ethanol in it now is quite corrosive but that you can
use one of the fuel additives. Don't know how true that is.

 KW> One of my dreams was to buy an old 1970s or earlier car - want a car

 KW> Want a car with chrome, leather and wood and minimal plastic.

That's one of the things I enjoyed. I am far from being any sort of mechanic
but I could actually work on my cars.
