Ok so i called all the tow companies over the last few days. No one can remove my car unless it is in my drive way. It is just a shell now. almost every suspension part was removed. I think they rear lca's and the trailing arms are still on. That is about it. The only thing that comes to mind is getting about 10 people to lift it 10 feet to my driveway :lol:

Anybody want to help? Rob, Chromey ;) little help?

serious though, other wise i am sawzalling this mofaka to death.

bboybean
Im down , but I work alot this week so I can only really do it thurs day or weds/thurs night (i.e. after 9pm)

Prudz_lude
yah this is the biggest problem. Everyone would have to agree to a time. It is really near impossible imho but who knows. I vote 30 min before a UC meet just because everyone is right by my house at that time. I live about 3 minutes away from UC driving.

Supra_devil
if you can still get 2 tires on it then its easy, use a jack to lift the other end and move it.

could try 2 jacks, one at each end, but it will be tippy.

Hook up a tow cable and drag it wherever.

i don't have a tow cable. I told the towing companies they could do it. They told me negative.

catlin987987
PM me your address and I can help, I need to meet some of you anyways:thumbup:

Prudz_lude
Thanks guys, i really appreciate it. If everyone is ok with it friday around 7-8pm would work best. I figure since most of you are going to already going to be on your way to UC that this time would work best. If you can't help at this time please let me know so i can take your name off the list.

here is a list of people who have said they can help. gtaylor, even if you are weak it still helps :thumbup: Infact, i will need someone to actually place the 4 jack stands under the car on my driveway while everyone holds it in place.

United cycle. It is where the car meets are held friday and saturday at 9pm

Prudz_lude
If everyone shows up we should have enough man power to lift that car up assuming that everyone is over 150lbs :lol: i am still trying to get a few more people to show up and more are still welcome. This shell is still heavy.

blondy
I could come out and help Adam

Loool kidding am not over 150lbs...good luck...hope ya'll get the job done !!

:)

bboybean

:lol: thanks

JoshP2002
Im pretty well free that night, so 6 works for me too.

AudiInProgress
6PM?

LOL

You guys are fuckin' crazy.

I don't get off work until 6PM on Friday, then I'm going home to shower/shit/shave, etc.

I'd be more inclined to help ~9pm immediately prior to the meet.


But it sounds like you've got so much help, you don't necessarily need to wait for me, so... If you guys wanna tackle it at 6PM. Go for it.

:bowdown:

AudiInProgress
Edit: double post

2ndgenlude
just found out i got a birthday dinner to attend friday at 6. i could show up if its later. like 11 haha.

Prudz_lude
hmmmmmmmmmm fuck. Well in all honestly rob needs to be there to make this work. His strength is unparalleled. To make things easier for everyone, it will be right before the meet, 9pm ish.

LOL!

I'm most definately above average size and strength wise... But I don't know if I'm the "strongest" person at 780.

Joey (solle) is fucking built like a brick shithouse, and I put a bear hug on him last Friday night, he most probably would have laid a hurting on me... If he thought I was seriously attacking him.

Chromey is pretty tough too.

Nothing needs to be said for Aaron.


I've had physical assesments done, and the testers are always rather surprised, but as I said... I don't think I'm anywhere near the strongest person.

I'm no super saiyan. :(

well i don't think joey remembers who i am, i am pretty sure aaron would have said something by now if he was willing to help, same goes for chromey. I will pm them but not to sure if they will be willing to help.

AudiInProgress
We'll get it taken care of man... No worries!

ZEguy

Damnit albert, i completely forgot about that.

Ok, from a guess i would say the car is about 1300-1400lbs at most. There is no suspension except some in the rear, no exhaust, no engine, no interior, just the steering coloum and heating core, and alot of broken glass. I figure with the list we have right now we should be able to lift this car out of there.

BRING GLOVES!!!!! All the angles on this car to lift from hurt the hands. Make sure you bring your own gloves. I have 1 pair and they are going to be used by me.

wubba_65
Pm me your address if you want more help.... Also, if you want to be saved the towing fee, I could bring over a cutting torch and a couple of grinders and we can cut the bitch up into pieces, you could load it all in the back of a truck and ...........
































Recycle!

catlin987987
so whats exactly happening?

Prudz_lude
The time is set at 845-9pm right before the meet to meet at my house and move this shell about 10 feet into my driveway. I have got a few suggestions to use 4 jacks with wheels and move it onto my driveway but it is cobble stone so that won't work.

I'll be pm'ing everyone on the list my address info so that you guys know where to go so we can get it out of the garage. After that i guess we will all head to the meet or continue on with our nights.

i'll buy some beer for those who help so name something that you like :thumbup:

AudiInProgress
Let me get this straight...

It has no suspension, no motor, no nothing...

I could wrap my dick around it and pull it out of your garage myself...

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I dont mind comming out and giving a hand if you need it. I'm only 120lbs myself, but still another set of hands.

For sure, the more help the better. I'll be pm'ing everyone the info tomorrow morning. It is 1:15am so i am going to attempt to sleep right now :p

not too sure. Give me a call earlier if you can. I honestly think it will take more than the list but that is just me.

4thGenLude
alright pm me your number i dont think i have the most recent one

ZEguy
i wanna come watch adam ill call you if i can make it.Someone bring a camera.

Geofux
I could bring a camera...

Yeah, right before the meet is the best. I should be off work at 8 and picking up a friend very shortly afterwards. If he comes, and maybe another friend comes there'll be even two more sets of hands to help. ;)

deathwarden5
So, what be happening?

Address required in order to help.:D

Prudz_lude
busy pm'ing everyone the address and number as we speak!:thumbup:

Prudz_lude
All the pm's were sent!

The time we will all meet is before UC so i would imagine 8:45 to 9:00. Please let me know if you are going to show up or not. I pm'd everyone my cell so just give it a call and i will pick up. except at around 4-4:30 got a hair cut i have to go to.

Geofux
I gave you a call, and left you a message. Bugger, you didn't pick up!

Edit - Nevermind, called me back. :p

Prudz_lude
A huge thank you to everyone who showed up to help me out. :thumbup: :thumbup:

blondy
:cool: Anytime...more than welcome...glad I could help !!










Alright alright so I wasn't there...but I was in spirit...I was pulling for ya'll

Glad you got it done and good on the guys helping you out

:)

Supra_devil
ended up being held up doing some exhaust work, hope you got it done easily enough.

bboybean
Grrr.. I wanted to strap some chains around me and see if I could pull that bitch by myself..

gtaylor
sorry i didnt make it. i just got back from calgary at 730 with my new wheels, and kinda wanted to put them on :D

glad it worked out

Geofux
That was pretty easy. :p

AudiInProgress
I didn't even know we were just moving it 10 feet... I was holding on to it and then everybody else started letting go... It's funny how much heavier it gets when everyone else relaxes... And then I almost got my finger pinched... haha

All's well that ends well.

JoshP2002
Haha, ya, it went well - we were all waiting for you Rob, good turn out though, easy enough move!
