"The Leg" is broken!!!
Stranded in Edmonton, we absolutely NEED a clutch cable to move her tomorrow...willing to beg, borrow, buy or give you our first born if neccessary.
We will be away from the computer for a couple of hours, but PM with a cell phone number we can text or call to make arrangements.
Please help fix our broken leg!

It will move without a clutch cable. Not a lot of fun to get it rolling but I've driven a few car with no clutch.

I think I've seen a clutch cable in the garage somewhere. I'll have to check to make sure I can find it.

Hey Rod, got your email as well. If my parts car wasn't autotragic you would be more than welcome to grab it, hopefully Dale fixes you up.

I just ran out to the garage and I still have one from my 242, only a year or two of use on it.

Heading out of town in a couple of hours, text or call seven-oh-one 2228.

I've driven without too (hence the replacement). Just use the starter to get going and shift smoothly!
