    craigrice said in Reasons to drive an old car:

    Jonathon if you have a smart steering wheel with many switches attached their in could be the problem as some of the semi trucks in years past had them and were more problems than benefit some driver5s that had them ,they were called smart wheels they would pull the cover and blow the inside out with air to get the dust and other things out of the switches just don’t set off your air bag

    A 2002 Tundra won’t have too much in the steering wheel and column. The ignition switch and possibly a couple other switches for cruise and horn. Could be a good candidate for some DIY repairs.

      YooperDog Did you go to Boys Tech High School in Milwaukee? My Father went there and learned his trade as a wood pattern maker. We used to go to their football games in the early to mid 60’s.

      Bob Stehlik yes. That building is now torn down and replaced with a new one. I think the name is Allen-Bradley high school. There was a lot of history in that place and many learned good skills for the work force.

        nope the spyder only came with a manual transmission - most were 4 speed, but occasionally there would be a 3 speed.

        I’ve had several corvairs over the years with the 2 speed powerglide (aka powerslide) transmission usually with a gear selector (forward, neutral, reverse), but one with the push buttons.
