Ive seen 2 55 chevys lose a left ball joint when I was on the road close to them.First one was around 1960,Chevy was ahead of me, the left wheel flopped out and the car slid to a stop.I pulled over.There was a very scared woman driving, she had a tight grip on the steering wheel.She said the car had just been in for repairs.I took her to the garage and told them she needed a wrecker to bring her car in.The second one happened years later on a steep hill. I was coming up the hill with a load of lumber in a station wagon.A 55 chevy coming down the hill lost a ball joint, crossed the road in front of me and went into the ditch on the left side of the road .The other side of the road has a steep drop off and had the old post and cable guard rail.Another scared woman, her face was white.I took her down to the general store to make a phone call, no cell phones back then.The hill is long and steep,I stay off it in winter.What are the odds of being near 2 55 chevys when they lost a ball joint, pretty high but Ive done it.We took the fire truck to auto accidents.A woman ran an import pickup truck off the road, it came to rest on its side.She was sitting on the side of the road when I got there.She was crying ,I asked her if she was hurt, she said no but Ive peed my pants.I told her I would have done a lot worse.She began to laugh.

But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
