I am with Charmalu, as I learned on a '49 Chev(it was old, I was young) with the toe button on the floor just above the accellerator pedal on the hump. Mechanical connecting rod to the starter. That was in the back yard of my parents home in W. Va. Alot of memories, actually just recently sold that home. (wipe eye). Took the drivers test in a '66 Chrysler New Yorker, that thing was just a tad smaller than the StarShip Enterprise.

After the lessons have her assist in changing oil, in a month she will be adjusting valves and changing glow plugs, checking flex disks, looking for parts cars....
