Funny you mention that.  My '03 had about 70,000km on it when I lost a tie rod backing up in a parking lot 5 minutes after coming off of the highway!  Could've been a lot worse...

What's the cost of learning to do that?
sheet metal repair + new human pylons + new shorts = $$$$........

Gee. Too bad GM had to hold a spectacle like that in CHINA! Maybe Caddy sales would increase if they did a traveling show like that in North America!

I saw them using Cuda's and Road Runners and other Plymouths in say 69/70. They would change cars from year to year. They always ran with no exhausts biggrin

I remember Chevy's, even a few Corvairs I think in the mid 60's. Every year at the end of summer for the fall fair season along with a demolition derby on the same day.
