Spring of 69; master cyl went out on my 54 Chevy. Used it to throw newspapers at 3 am every morning, and take the car pool to school every Thursday. Drove it for thirty days with nothing but the hand brake, until the handle broke off. Drove it another thirty days with a pair of vice grips in place of the handle. Finally rebuilt the master cyl.
If those kids' parents only knew how they were getting to school.
Have another story with the same car, but will save it for later. No vice grips involved.
