needs a little gas engine and some tracks under it to scoot a little bit quicker...
Was her Mommy's.... about 33 years old. That was right before the plastic steering wheel broke and we had to go get her Uncle's old Black GT next.

Winter of 1976, Dad's brand new '76 Fury Sport. Went to leave the ski hill and it would fire but not run. Boosted with a groomer, still no joy. Luckily we caught the ski bus before it headed the 2 hours home and jumped on it. Dealership sent a wrecker for it the next day, dual ballast resistor toast.

I've carried a spare my entire driving life, have never needed one... because I have a spare in the glove box! (in every car!)
 
Around the same year I was in school in Toronto and my parents came to visit in my old 71 Demon. Car would start but wouldn't stay running. No balast resistor on hand. We found a sweet spot for the key where it would keep running. We taped it in place and they were able to drive it all the way back to the other side of Hamilton (about 60 miles)

I always kept a spare in my Mopars, but never needed it.
