The Flaming Repair
This puzzler was sent in to us a long, long time ago from a very loyal listener.
Here it is, word for word.
Years ago, cars commonly had something that almost all sea-going ships still have. On both the cars and the ships, this thing runs from forward, aft on the port side and aft, forward on the starboard side.
For people who don't know sailing terminology, that means front to back on the left and back to front on the right.
This is something that was on both cars and ships in plain sight.
Hint! Ships still have it, but most cars do not have it now.
What was it?
