I don't use it either, I'm a control freak.

My bucket truck had a similar control. It was a choke-like pull-out knob, to bring the engine revs up to run the pto.

I am impressed by this really well researched and written article on that early "autopilot."
From April 1958 Popular Science.

For me this is a facepalm for sure.

♫ There's something wrong
With the kids in my neighborhood
They always listen to their moms
They disregard civil disobedience
They'd rather do what they're told
They don't drink or fuck or fight
They sit home, and read, expand their minds

What's wrong is their parents.

I'd do a Fire Burn Out in front of his house.

Be kind when you can.

fargon · 10-07-2019, 04:18 PM

My hope is that it inspires his children to become Hot Rodders.

Mother & son rides, plus a '53 Chevy that's been rode hard and put up wet.

Gravdigr · 10-28-2019, 01:45 PM

Likin' that wagon.

xoxoxoBruce · 10-31-2019, 09:56 PM

Yeah, gorgeous and rare. Kind of classy color combo too.

xoxoxoBruce · 10-31-2019, 09:59 PM

I don't remember ever seeing one of these, at least one not closed up in cognito.

Diaphone Jim · 11-01-2019, 10:59 AM

It looks like it has a gas powered reel lawnmower in there.
