Hot, humid air is less dense than cooler, drier air. This can allow a golf ball to fly through the air with greater ease, as there won't be as much resistance on the ball.

Quite frankly the old beer bottle in picture tells it all.....

Somebodies attempt to move linkage to right so they could have center- low pilots seat, drag car?

I think it took more than one beer to figure out the linkage quite frankly. I might just trade out some prized possessions and fire this baby up.

Discombulated looking, but I can see that it probably worked. The back-forth action of the shift lever looks like it had to have some side-to-side action at the nose of the trans as well. There's a lot of action going on there.

True but it did work. A little rust doesn't scare me.
