I’m not superstitious.  Just a little stitious.

I'd rather die than live in such a jurisdiction.

Now you will know to inspect the clutch release bellcrank on your next 1965 Plymouth Valiant.

The Lexus was just soooo boring. This Valiant cheers me up every time I get behind the wheel, and that has a lot of value to me.

This type of failure is why I finally lost the old-car-as-a-daily-driver argument.

Oh wait, I see the issue right there in your photos...it’s a ‘96 Pontiac Firebird.
