[DeTomaso] Mangusta starter solenoid

[Michael Shortt]

When I was broke in college, a screwdriver was used for about three weeks to
start my Mustang Mach One 351 Cleveland by jumping the posts on the
solenoid, even used sunglasses frames a couple of times, leaves welding
marks if you aren't fast enough.
