My old ford had a seat built into the wheel well. Well, maybe it wasn't meant to be a seat but a pillow turned it in to a really comfortable one and you could reach the entire half of the engine.
I had a friend in High School who welded a toolbox to his fender wall in his old truck.
Saved our buts (and a few other stranded motorists) on many a road trip. Don't remember if it was a Ford or Chevy, but it was green... and finicky.
You know you're going to hell for that, right?
I want one. No, I want to build one.

How To Smell 3.5x Better Right Out of the Shower

Just be sure the car behind you isn't a cop.
I was behind a van with 1 other car between us. The van would speed up when there was room to pass and slow down when you couldn't pass. The car in front of me flashed his lights and the van turned on a very bright light that blinded him and me. The car then turned on his flashing red light and it was game over for the idiot in the van.
Karma at it's best.
I put this story under the military thread sometime ago, most of you probably didn’t see it… but it fits here… A do not laugh situation in the Navy. My best friend “Sam” had been on an around the world cruise on the battle ship New Jersey just before he became my boss. He bought a sailors tie in Bangkok made from silk, much nicer than the ones at the uniform shop but still within regs.
The company was in formation being inspected by an admiral. I’m the company clerk (yeoman) standing next to Sam (asst company commander) and my senior chief, company commander.
Anyway the admiral inspects me then steps in front of Sam. He noticed the tie, felt it then asked “Where did you get that tie sailor?” Sam said “In Thailand Sir”.
I heard guys several rows back laugh out loud, everyone knew about that tie. I’m standing there doing my very best to maintain military discipline… trying not to laugh, holding my breath, I know my face was red. I could see my Senior Chief trembling out of the corner of my eye, he’s also trying not to laugh!!!
Sam wasn’t trying to be funny or a SA. He gave an honest answer to a direct question. OMG! It was soooo funny!!! I was praying the admiral would move on so I could breath again. We laughed about that event for months. This was far harder than tying not to laugh at church etc. I had to remain stoic, perfectly still for all the military brass. And the admiral was standing 3ft from me… it was torture!!!
