<VV> Slightly OT rant re pedals NO Corvair

[Frank DuVal]

Yes, I would have. Of course Studebakers had the hill holder option at 
least from 1950 to their end in 66. My 50 3 speed Champion had it, and 
now my 50 Commander automatic also has a version! With the automatic it 
is called Anti-Creep. You can take your foot ff the brake at a light and 
the car sits still until you give it gas, even with high idle.

> Frank, you would have liked my '39 Buick with 'Hill Holder.'  When stopping on a hill [heading up or heading down] apply the brake to slow down, depress the clutch then brake to a stop.  Depress the clutch further and it holds the brake pedal down.  Step on the 'foot feed' and slowly release the clutch.  As the vehicle starts to move the brake pedal is gradually released for a smooth start up!
