Wombat - 

Add to your list: use of the choke. I suppose we could add the necessity of carrying spare tires because ours don't  run when flat.  How about the need to check (and sometimes add) oil?  Check radiator coolant?  Replace fuses? Adjust/replace points? And the list goes on...

Holiday Cheers,
Allen

Who will care for these neat little vehicles on which we all labor to keep serviceable after their maker waved goodby some 50+ years ago???? Will they slowly go back to ground or is there another generation out there of young men (and women) itching to understand the the trick of “9” in setting valves, or learning how to synchronize a set of SUs with a garden hose piece and a tin funnel???? Will they even know HOW to shift gears, much less master the trick of “double clutching” for a shift into low gear while still moving, and yes it is occasionally necessary still?  Who will remember that cars needed to be greased occasionally at critical moving areas..not like now. My gosh , my granddaughter thinks its neat that you can actually crank the windows up and down manually. Guess in her 12 –13 years she’s never been in a car without power everything.
