New (to me) Farm Truck

First pickup I ever drove was a 56 Chevy with a suicide knob on the steering wheel. I was 12 years old and my grandfather said "jump in the driver's seat. I could barely push the clutch down and still see over the dash. I drove 10 miles down the highway. I had learned how to drive stick with my dad's logging equipment so that wasn't a problem, but my grandfather had to place a few coats under me so I could see over the dash. I gave my kid our last stick shift car a couple years back as my knee was getting sore driving in rush hour traffic.
I once had a clutch cable break in rush hour. I was thankful my dad taught me how to double clutch since the old cars didn't have a syncromesh in the transmission. I was able down shift by going to neutral, revving the engine to a higher rpm, and waiting for the transmission to be just the right timing to drop down a gear. God was gracious in allowing me to not have to entirely stop.

 

Enjoy!

 

Cool and it’s a stick

 

So it’s a kainos not a neos!
