Reminds me of my friend's '69 Mack R-700. He bent the front bumper and got the loader out to try to straighten it. Out of a strange co-incidence, he left the truck parked in Reverse. The 8V-71 fired up and started moving backwards. Luckily the trailer brakes were still holding and it finally stalled out. He would have had a lot more trouble than a bent bumper!!
