A recipe for disaster- take one part Cadillac with the gas gauge on E, one part gas station at the bottom of a hill, mix in a healthy dose of pushing and a too-late realization that the power for the power brakes requires a running engine, and what do you get? Well, for Abel’s Quick Shop in Hannibal MO, it was a de ville in the doorway. Missouri is nick-named the “Show-me” state, what this shows me is Darwinism at work. Fortunately no one was hurt in the accident.
