Driving an old 58 Morris Minor on the autobahn in 1969 , going to Italy....running about 85 I notice my steering wheel seem not to be straight....hmmm ,not noticed before? maybe it always was crooked? hmmm
of course the old car is shaking like crazy ,it always did... I just bought it very used for $200 the week before....
well, another 10 minutes I notce that the steering wheel now is more crooked, car still going straight...strange? I go out, feel the front wheels, hmmm they`re a little loose... I can move the upper part of the wheel back and forth about 1/2", check the other side....hmmmm about the same, "oh well, guess its ok, its old and worn , it`ll be ok", get back in , start up, drive off , as I put it into second gear ,the whole front pass side A frame assembly falls off the car!

4 bolts are supposed to hold it in plasce...I find one , stripped , see two broken off in there one more missing...

I stick the one stripped in the hole , holding the A-frame on...drive "carefully" to next town ,and as it has it ,on a sunday only one person is out...he helps me get two oversized bolts in in the empty holes, gives me two 'spares' and tell me to fix it asap.
Well, I`m on my way to Italy , so not much time...we keep going , checking the bolts tightness every 30 minutes, they are tight...then every 2 hrs , they are tight...everything seems ok , so we drive thru the Alps, down into Italy, coming into Bologna,the same darn wheel falls off again!
we fix it with the 'spares'... after that it stayed on....all the way thru Rome, back to France ,Paris , and home to Sweden!
