[semi-rant] They're alive!!!



Dan, you needed to remove the back seats, and floor jack (inst this in the
spare wheel well?) to fit a DOG in your car?
What kind of dog is it to be that BIG to need removal of the back seats to
sit in a car...?
And the other question I have is, since you have a W Pickup, why not use it
to carry the monster dog to the vet?


BTW: 2 years ago before I started restoring the car, I used to fit by
folding the seats down, 4 50lbs bails of hay and 2 50 lbs bags of horse feed
in the car, thats 300 LBs of load, damn that dog must be Cujo or something..

Enquiring minds want to know

I know that these cars are sentient.

Last week, my battery was in the process of crapping out, the only times
that it wouldn't start was when I didn't have the jumper cables with me!!

This morning, I had to take the dog to the vet, so I removed the back seat,
rear deck/speakers, and.....the floor jack I always carry.....


...sure enough, I had just dropped off the dog (I could haul ass now) and
went to shift from 3rd to 4th and *poof*, the linkage came apart from
somewhere underneath. The damned car knew I couldn't get under it without
the jack.......grrrr......
