Mr. Fixit.....
Simple, some friends and I were going to the Daytona 500. The car overheated, we pulled off the road. No buildings, no Cell phone (1976). Greg, the driver, had "checked" the fluid before the trip. He had gotten the rad cap on wrong, thus coolant looked out. There was a very small ditch. It had about an 1/2 inch of water in it.
I looked around for someyhing to put it in. There was an old coke can I pulled the top off of. It took me half hr to fill the radiator.
Just when we arrived at the race, the Star Spangled Banner started playing !
Another time, a different friend , who had a /6 Duster, was waxing his car for a hot date that he was sure that he was going to get some ***. We went towards the car wash to use the vacuum.On the way back to Is place, he got on it hard ! It started knocking like a son of a *****. He was upset and asked if he could borrow my car, I said no way, a i had just painted it. We pulled that motor (smoked rod journal )removed the back piston, cut and whittled a fence post piece, and pounded it in the cylinder. It sounded and ran like ****. Yes, he got some.
