But Puddin-head loved to play with it. She'd bring it back but wouldn't let go. Unless you thru it, she wasn't interested. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it, they’re very thin ivory but even if it worked they didn’t want to pay me enough to do it. Also if you notice they were all chipped and some were missing. They need to be replaced but they’re too cheap. BTW is was a 1902 Steinway, well worth the $500-$600 to replace the key tops.

Pat Riot Posted January 12 Author Share Posted January 12 8 minutes ago, Alpo said: Occasionally I see decals on cars that say something like “Back off! Stick shift. May roll backwards” I think they ought to learn to properly drive a stick shift or get something they can drive without rolling backwards. I learned drive with a manual transmission. Rolling back was taboo, verboten, forbidden and would get you a slap in the head from your Dad or your friends. I learned to drive a stick in the hills of Pennsylvania. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpo Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Actually my father taught me to use the emergency brake when getting started on a hill. He said this was just a temporary thing until I learned how to do it right, but at least I wasn't rolling backwards. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cypress Sun Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 1 hour ago, Eyesa Horg said: My first car was a standard, so learned pretty quick! I learned to drive on a '73 VW Beetle. Clutches were non forgiving on those things. I hated that car, but I learned how to drive a manual transmission in it. Surprised that my stepfather doesn't still have neck problems from the "learning curve". Riding a clutch on a hill is truly an art as is the ole heel toe. I miss those days...sorta. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had a 300 straight 6 and a 5 speed stick. It was a bear in traffic but I loved that truck. I wish I wouldn’t have sold it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warden Callaway Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Last manual car was a 1970 Cutless Supreme. It had a "Rock Crusher" 4 speed with 2.2 low gear. I had to traid it off when insurance was higher than my monthly payment although I had a spotless driving record. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
