I once had a 1934 Plymouth that had free wheeling, but it had been disabled
because it was considered dangerous.
  There was a large knob in the middle of the dash which, when pulled, engaged
the free wheeling. I had cut the cable about three inches from the knob and
put the knob and remaining cable back in to cover the hole. When I had
passengers, it was lots of fun to pull that knob out and holler "Oh, Damn". So
you see; the free wheeling was useful in other ways.
   That was an old car when I had it, I'm old but not THAT old!
