Fords after the mid 50's early 60's were an absolute pain though. You have to have the year correct, model correct, engine and transmission correct to get the right brake shoes and drums for some models.

Yes, and Ford can still be a nightmare. I was looking for a computer for a 2009 model Explorer. There were 14 different computers listed with no information about the differences. Ultimately it came down to two different computers and seven software updates for each. Ugh.
I've also had trouble with International trucks. You can't just show up at the parts counter with year/make/model. You almost have to know the family of the guy building the truck in order to get the correct parts.
