We used to do just that, and the amount of things that could break were simple.
Right? Had a '67 F-100 Ranger with a 240 straight six. Just hop in the engine bay and start tinkering! Or hop in to beat on the three on the tree linkages because you jammed the whole damn transmission up. Gawd, I miss having vehicles where a hammer was a viable means of repair! :LOL:

With a beer in your hand to boot.

I had an old Dodge van that used a case of oil from Lejune to Ohio.
One weekend on the way home we spin a bunch of bearings
Everything was closed, we found an old dodge parked at a farm and the farmer let us have EVERYTHING we needed.
His wife made all of us dinner and of course the farmer had his home brew.
We weren't 30 miles from base and still had a hard time making it to formation on Monday morning.

We stopped by there on the way home almost every weekend for a year,great folks. ( loaded up with fire water and homemade food)

I have a 71 Lemans 4 door Post car that I converted to a floor shift after I couldn't get parts for the 3 on a tree. You're absolutely right about jamming it the fuck up. If you want to talk real crazy Mercedes made a 5 on a tree at a point!

That is some epic gear heading right there. Shout outs to those people.
