Sawzall, the New Mercedes Tool?
I was yanking the pumpkin out of John Doe-nor last night but the tailpipe was in the way of letting the unit down with the axles in place. After a brief head-scratching session where I considered unbolting the back end of the exhaust system, I decided simply to cut the offending section out with my Sawzall.
Hehe, sure is fun/easy working on a car that you know will never have to roll again.

I bought an engine a couple of years ago from a salvage yard and it didn't take them 15 minutes to get it out of the car and have it on a pallet ready to go.
They just cut everything holding it in there with a cutting torch, motor mounts and all! The only thing the unbolted was the tranny attatched!  BB

An abrasive blade in a skil-saw will really eat one up too.

I have two Saws All models in my shop. A Milwaukie and a DeWalt.
Don't tell anyone. Might think I am a real hack!

There's a deep primitive satisfaction to be gained in going after a car with an acetylene torch. It's not as good as sex but it's in that same kind of category.
