Remember well some of your thoughts, especially #4, the old "twist feet sideways" manuever. Starting on a hill, toe on brake, a little gas with the heel, & "Don't slip the clutch!!!". A feature the chev cars had on foot starter models that most people didn't notice- there was a peg on the throttle rod that the starter pedal pushed to give it a little gas when starting. Dad's 39 & 47 had it. Linkage was so worn on his 47 that sometimes it would slip past. Then giving it gas would make the starter kick in, not good. Shut it down, open hood & give the throttle rod a tug, good to go again.Went to push button starter in 49, don't know how long they kept it on the p-ups. In my day, could get full license at 15. Learner's permit & license weren't valid until the actual card came in the mail. Couldn't drive with just the test score sheet like some states allow now. Willie
