Possibly, Lorell. A few chicks did go for rides. I wish I had some pictures of it but life was moving quite quickly and not being the best scholar, I did do my share of studying and not too much out playing. I recall two incidents (not magnetic ones). One night in downtown Saranac Lake we left to go back to campus at about 2 am. It was about -10F. It was a 4 speed on the floor and the linkage broke. So we drove back about 15 miles in first gear. Only had first and reverse. Easily repaired later. Another time I was driving a few others back from school for a holiday break. I was pushing the mileage and got too low. Up came the gas station. I ran out of gas, put it in neutral and coasted to the pump and stopped without using the brake. He reached the filler and we were saved. Never got a ticket and still haven't.
