Re: The Green Wrecker

If it's just a starter problem, a manual will pop-start in second before the speedometer reads. I have pushed my own vehicle on flat ground to pop-start. Has to be in tune, of course.

The only time I pop-started a vehicle in a higher gear is a story in itself. The one I mentioned previously. That crazy S.O.B. was pushing me so fast I was afraid to pop the clutch in 4th!

Back to the green wrecker. Remember that? I need to get up to this friend's neighbor's house to measure and take notes on this summer kitchen I need to save and was hoping to get by for pictures of the tow truck (including hood ornament) today. But my day ran long, so my plan now is tomorrow
