I can top that one.
One year on a trip from TX to Iowa to see my grandmother & some family, we broke the flexplate on my Daytona. It busted in a perfect circle where it bolted to the crank. We were way out in the country, and I bummed a couple jackstands & another jack & pulled the transaxle right on the side of the highway on a little concrete slab. We couldn't find a new one anywhere without special ordering it, so my father & uncle scoured several yards until they found a used one.
