    The deck screws will never hold. They’ll pull out. You have to nut and bolt it.

    They're cool alright. But I'm used to working on the engine from the sides, seems like you'd be reaching over a lot.

    Good point on working "from the side" but I'm supposing you'd just have to get used to working from the ends instead.

    Finding space for one of those in my shop would be like finding space for a lift. Well, at least the floor space.

    When you double the winch with the snatch block that could happen. I wonder if he was up front running the winch and never saw that coming. Probably not who would tie a car down like that anyway? I bet it didn't come off.

    OOPS! Sorry man, I forgot the tie down straps, they are at home....
    Its OK, my ex's boyfriend was beating the crap my old car, and blew up the motor. Tie it down any way you can, drop it off on my old driveway. Let her deal with it!

    Personally, I'm pretty surprised the big Pontiac's roof is holding the car off the ground. Its also pretty amazing the car side, and front end are both still arrow straight. Especially with the trailer laying on the same side as the side of the car the picture is showing. one would think there should at least be a few dents and scratches on that side of the car...
    The two people look way more calm then I would be in their position.

    Is the big puddle under the back end of the car a water puddle, or is it gas?

    Just a guess, maybe water from the trailer's holding tank? Also, looks like he might have a bottle wrapped up in that jacket he's holding....probably needs it after that!:eek:
