My dad  always claimed to be able to shift an old non-synchro jeep gearbox 
from  first to high and back without a noise from the gearbox.  



He probably didn't use the clutch at all....a technique I learned on 10  
speed trucks in the 70's.  Learned to double clutch too, but for normal  
acceleration through the gears, no clutch at all after start up.

As he stared at her ample bosom, he daydreamed of the dual  Skinners Union
carburetors in his vintage MG, highly functional yet  pleasingly formed, 
perched prominently on top of the intake manifold, aching for  experienced hands, 
the small knurled caps of the oil dampeners begging to be  inspected and 
adjusted as
described in chapter seven of the Haynes shop  manual.
