Long ago our 1968 van had a fuel-delivery problem -- either the fuel
pump or a kink in the gas tank vent by the filler tube. For the rest of
the trip I held a gas can in my lap with a tube running into the carb.
Not pleasant, but functional.

We got the just-purchased ancient monsterhome (can't remember the
problem) up out of a RR underpass by feeding in shots of starting fluid.

There are real advantages to having the engine right next to the driver.
Not many, though.
