Here are some pics of the final trip of the unused rooftop.  Since nobody
wanted it, Chris Turner and I strapped on a trailer made from a 1970 pickup
truck onto Bev's trailer hitch, heaved the roof on and took it to the scrap
yard.


Chris had stopped over 2 nights ago with a big chisel and a die grinder to cut
the thing in 2 pieces so it would fit on the trailer.  Thanks, Chris!


Note the big crane at the yard that was wildly swinging around.  It was a old
guy having a good ol' time smashing cars and whatnot.  We got his attention and
he gave us the thumbs up to dump the stuff, but he was still moving that thing
all over the place.


Oh well...enjoy.


My next project is the 2.1 engine from Karl Mullendore sitting on my garage
floor.  Yesterday, I started taking the FI, intake and some coolant pipes off.
I'll be busy on my brother-in-law's sandblaster since it's a rusty Nova Scotia
engine.  :-)
