    They would remove them for being pulled like that on a sled but not for having no food in the house or mom or dad beating the hell out of them.

    We did that behind my friends '68 F-250 in high school we called it skitchin' ( short for ski hitching ) but we would line up and hang on to the rear bumper. We did some stupid sh!t back then it's amazing we're still here lmao! :)

    I grew up in northern South Dakota so I know what being drug behind a snowmobile is like, but we upped the danger level a bit with those metal saucers with handles and ridding the disc was comparable to riding a tube behind a boat except there’s trees, cars to deal with. It’s amazing that nobody got seriously injured.:D

    Looks more like a 69-70 Mustang than any Dodge I've ever seen.

    I could have happily lived my life without seeing that.
    Looks like someone with money tried to put all the stuff he liked from every brand into one car. The car is as confused as the concept was, but he did get it done, and as long as he was happy, what can I say.

    ^^ :D
    My kid doesn't remember (probably never knew), but I sure remember that 95 Dodge Intrepid with the 3.3 motor pulling consistent 30+ mpg numbers, any time it hit the highway, over the 3-4 years we owned it. At the time, my wife was working at a place where she was required to drive a 3 county area, she put 25,000 miles on that car every year, and it was used when we bought it. It was a great road car.
    What I was driving at the time was probably lucky to get 10 mpg, it was a whole lot of fun, but I wasn't driving 25K miles a year either. My son often rode with me...

    How about a PT cruiser with a chevy? cab, not sure on the front fenders, suicide doors (not exactly "hidden hinges" and I'm not sure how the handles work) and mother-in-law seats in the back? @anthony myrick got room for a PU?

    Reminds me of the old beer commercial where they asked: "why ask why?"
     
  28. Would'nt the front wheels hit the inner fender when turning full lock ? Besides the fact that these abortions never seem to be pulled of the road by the cops :rolleyes:

    Someone had a decent Chevy cab and totally blew it. This guy needed to be slapped more by his parents when he did stupid stuff!
