66 ford pickup with 8" of slop in the non-power steering and all 4 shocks broke through the mounts. 4 speed that it was mostly guessing how to do the 2-3 shift, no synchros in 1st. lifters clattered for years until it dropped a valve and stuck a rod through the block on my brother.
it was a farm truck mostly used for picking rocks. Used a big hammer jammed between the gas pedal and the seat to get it to idle on cold mornings
