| Friday we got the wrecked Honda Hatch on the car trailer and man oh man was it tight. Did not even put a scratch on the car. So today I got out the sawzaw to remove the fenders of the car trailer and they are not moving. I may have to borrow a plasma cutter. I want to hinge the fenders since it is real narrow. You have to craw in and out of the car through the hatch. It has electric windows and we should of pulled the fuel pump fuse. I hope we can get it off the trainer. We may just chain it to a tree and drive away. I hope it does not hurt the tree | |

| We can chain it between your truck and mine and have a tug-o-war... | |

| So after a little David Copperfield to levitate the car I was able to get the doors open, exhaust off it is a one piece unit thanks muffler shop. poo poo heads. The shifter car off and of coarse lots of blood. It been a while, no blood no VW.
Next is seats and carpet. Seat belts, the red hatch PO had a dog and it liked to chew on them. Better safe than OMG | |

| The car is perfect from the windshield back, inside and out. We are taking it to the college to straighten the front. They want a car the students care about not a 1973 Buick. They will steel everything off the car before we get it back. So if they can get it fixed fine if not we scrap it and move on. The car was hit so hard if spun 180 degrees and did not break the windshield. | |

Best of both worlds... | |

| What do you mean again? More like still!
And I don't know what you are referring too. A VW/Honda graft would be just as cool as any other 'Frakendub' on here.
Yes! I just made up a new term, better than 'submarines', 'FRANKENDUB'.
I am good... | |
