I might be gaining access to an SUV which drives (with a slipping tranny), and has some engine issues which will soon kill the car.
I wanna have some fun with it, then put it out of it's misery. How would you go about meeting those two goals, in the most enjoyable way?
I'm thinking about taking it out to a buddys place with lots of land, do some four wheeling till something breaks, then remove glass and fluids, beat it to crap with a some sledgehammers, then shoot it with a AK-47s and AR-15s and maybe put an explosive charge underneath it and blow it up a bit.
What would you do with it? 12/10/2012 1:26:24 PM |

I'm not interested in selling it. The goal here is fun. But yeah, I might scrap it after we're done with it 12/10/2012 1:47:03 PM |

Sounds good, but if the premise is the thing is going to die soon/give the poor person with a 2k repair bill in a matter of months, what purpose is served?12/11/2012 12:59:32 AM |

Charities don't want this POS. Go blow it up. 12/11/2012 9:44:14 AM |

Charities will probably just send it to auction and take the cash. The idea of a needy family getting a few months use out of it is nice, but more than likely it'll just go to a shady car lot that will dump in some Lucas transmission treatment and flip it for a quick $1500.

lol. Giving it away to a poor family would be great but I'd bet Christmas that they wouldn't have it insured. Tear it up, part it out, sell the shell for scrap. 12/11/2012 9:40:31 PM |

That's what I'm doing.
The intent of this thread was to receive advice on how to have the most fun doing so...so far I've received one suggestion: Drive on two wheels. Noted.12/12/2012 2:49:25 PM |

jump over things, monster truck style. 12/12/2012 3:08:52 PM |
specialkay All American 1036 Posts user info edit post |
break suspension jumping things, rip up transmission by revving and dropping it into gear or slamming it into reverse going fast. after you cant drive it anymore, rev the dog shit out of it and blow up the motor. Then call the scrap guy to come pick it up.
Basically do everything you did when you got a car/truck when you were 16. 12/12/2012 3:35:33 PM |

Drive on 2 wheels, jump it, cut the roof off after you roll it. Pull the roof behind it as a sled. 12/12/2012 3:40:10 PM |

fyi - you have to weld the rear differential in order to drive on two wheels. if you don't you'll lose forward momentum. it's not a hard job and i'm sure someone on here would volunteer to do it for you. i recommend you do it anyway as it would make off-road driving more fun and you'll go through a lot more stuff.12/17/2012 9:28:53 AM |
