  I had a 1960 Falcon.  A really cool sedan/delivery body style with the
Ford six.  Hurst floor-shift and a straight six.  Driving along my morning
commute, a badly wash boarded road in Wyoming...the transmission did fall
right out the bottom.  I watched that Hurst floor-shift lever just suck
right out and disappear.  That one had a cargo net...but it was inside, not
under.
  I saw some cargo nets of 'eastern origin' at the nearby K-Mart store a few
days back.  Also at Harbor Freight.
