When I was a kid, the local farmer had a cut down Ford tow truck cab. A kind if a high end doodle bug. it had two transmissions with a two speed,chain drive rear and the only floor was under the drivers side. We used to put four kids plus the driver in it. The Old Man said" Dont Put your feet where you see anything moving." Evidently we were paying attention at that time as all my friends have all their parts
