Back when I lived in south St Petersburg, Florida I had an old 1979 Honda Civic with the two-speed Hondamatic trans, which I drove to Largo daily and also delivered pizzas in every night. On the way to work one morning the timing belt broke out on the highway. I had known it needed to be changed but hadn't gotten around to changing it yet, so I had a new timing belt, my tool box and a Chilton's manual in the trunk.

I changed that timing belt on the side of I-275 at rush hour, and was only an hour late for work!
