JP,
If there was a LBC version of Jeff Foxworthy's "You might be a redneck"..called
"You might be an LBC nut".
This might be a candidate!

I can hear it now..
"If you've ever used two wrenches bolted to your steering wheel adapter so you could take a test drive....Yooooouuuu might be an LBC nut."

Another common one:
"If you've ever used your toolbox in place of a driver's seat in order to conduct a test drive....Yoooouuu might be an LBC nut." (<< I'm guilty of this one for sure!)

I gotta say, I've done stranger things..
It's a rather interesting solution to the problem!

Glad to hear you're coming along so well with the car..good on ya!

A Redneck would take the steering wheel adapter off and "install" vicegrips.
