Off-topic, but I can't help remembering the story of an Italian high-glosh car of the 1930's or so ((it must have been a Lamborghini, or perhaps a Maserati, or such)), which was delivered with the usual set of accessories like a jack and engine crank and what not, and also two large copper tubs. The evening before a winter ride, one was supposed to drain the engine oil in one tub, the radiator coolant in the other, then put both on the kitchen stove overnight.Come morning, drain both tubs into the car and start the engine right away. Those were the days!
