shifting a bus isn't the same as a bug~ 1st you have to double clutch, then throw that little romper room switch to the left of the steering wheel in, then blow your horn three times, hook and unhook
your seat belts twice, blink your lights once then you should be good to go (in first) 2nd, 3d, and 4th
now that is a whole new story.  LAUGH@

Shawn that know b makes it look like you have to push down to get into reverse but you dont.

Reverse is easy, I just keep throwing it into 3rd and stalling out.

Beet, go with hardwood floor. Much easier to clean. Put a rubber-backed thow rug on top.

Today I watched  :icon_eek: Shawn design a handle for my front hood.

I also sealed the hood with spray foam as per Jay's recommendation.   I know your scratching your head saying; sealed the hood with spray foam ??? maybe I'll post a photo later.
