Work on cars long enough and you figure they're all Christine's
siblings. I had a '60 Plymouth that I'm certain was a relative. It
started as a pushbutton Torqueflite and ended up as a floor shift
manual. That's when I learned about endless projects. Among other
difficulties the parking brake for the AT was a drum on the end of the
transmission. I wasn't concerned about that until the lack of a safety
brake was pointed out to me by a State Trooper. So, next project was
swapping out the rear axle for one that had a safety brake and
fabricating the linkage. No big deal after inventing the whole hydraulic
clutch system from miscellaneous parts laying around.

Kept me out of trouble, I guess.
