Good use of torque. Would have been more appropriate if the fella had parked in a handicap space though.

They have a giant shredder at a salvage yard in Sioux City, IA. Got to watch that thing work once!!! I don't remember how many tons it does per day, but it's a very large amount!!! The it goes in railroad cars to the west coast, and on a boat to China so we can buy it all back!!!!!Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

They should have shredded the hippies flowered suit while they were at it.
I took a car to a junk yard in NC when I lived there, and go to see it go up a conveyor belt and come out as little pieces. Was cool to watch.

Well, it didn't go down without a fight!!

It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

who cares it was just a Super Beetle & they were junk when they were built. I wonder what kinda MPG it got, since there was no motor in it...Donate Blood,Plasma,Platelets & sign your DONORS CARD & SAVE a LIFE

Ditto on the model kits! My best were lost when the Hobby Shop burned under suspicious circumstances....
