Back in 1963 my dad found a 1941 "120" on a Ford used car lot. The little old lady had traded it for a Ford Falcon. Imagine that ! Well one Sunday we started out for a Sunday drive and the gears got stuck as Dad shifted from reverse to first. He tried everything as it blocked the busy street in front of the house. Finally he called our old Buick mechanic and he told him to get on the driver side front fender and bounce the car up and down. It worked ! He remembered this from his years of experience as he was in his sixties then.
