Default She stayed in the rumble seat too long

Yet one more bit of trivia, now long lost: for those who insist in both 'spooning' and in inter-active living-history - you should know that while in the Front Seat - there can still be room for 'action'. The gear shift stick, while normally in the way, can be, with a little bit of manly force, pulled up and turned out of the way - clearing the way for more manly manuveuring.

There is a lot of history that has not made it into books !

I was told that while the small lever was for the parking brake, moving the big lever that way was for the sparking break.
