I have a friend who worked at one time for Bendix, who make a LOT of the subassemblies for all things automotive-related-Brakes, electronics, this, that, & the other. He said that once demand for a BR-549 Ford whickerbill assembly dropped below "X" units, it would be discontinued, & often as not the tooling would be scrapped. He said that at some point in the future, a lot of otherwise serviceable cars could be sidelined because of the inavailability of these electronic gizmotrons. Could be fun for future generations of motorheads wanting to restore a 1994 Mustang in say, 2040...Which is about the same amount of elapsed time as us wanting to restore a '64 Stang today...
