My dad’s father had his station wagon repossesed, and that was the only car they had for the family business. My dad was about 14. In order to get the money to get the car back, he went to customers who had taken delivery of rebuilt carburetors from his dad but hadn’t paid their bill. Most of them were broke too. But he collected whatever he could from them in 5 and 10 dollar bills and it took all day on foot and by bus. And he got enough to get the car back for a month.
