[SEL] Life happens!!

[Skip Cleveland]

I had put a truckster clutch on my Eagle which made me have a suicide 
clutch, no more automatic clutch. I put a hand clutch on and used some sort 
of HD K model cable, that worked. I had to then remove the foot boards and 
use some more HD parts and Bates foot pegs to facilitate a foot shift. I can 
now squeze blood from a stone with my left hand. Solid clutch lugged the 
engine but sounded beautiful, broke the crank.
