I drove a 68' Chevy K-10 with a 4 speed and no power brakes or power steering for 8 weeks following having my left knee "reassembled". Of course I was young and stupid but particularly coordinated. One crutch went on the passenger's side and the other positioned at my right hand. The left leg was over to the kick panel, the right leg had duty on all 3 pedals. To start out, right foot on the clutch, crutch tip on the gas pedal, once rolling, right hand shifted, right shoulder gassed it, right foot clutched it, once cruising, right foot gassed it. To stop right hand knocked the shifter to neutral and right foot braked. To hold steady at a stoplight I held the brake with the crutch and the clutch with the right foot. Dad was pretty sweet on those 427 engines so I rarely stalled it. Dang those old Chevies were tough, Too bad they stopped building trucks in 1987.
