Funny interesting video

I don't generally do this but thought folks here would like to ponder it and make comments about what percentage of the things needed to actually use a vehicle might be missing in this

Actually quite impressive even with missing fasteners.

Pfft...you could take a Cadillac deVille to the Bronx, and it would be taken apart in half the time.

I like how the elderly couple at the cafe were enjoying their meal, oblivious to the dismantling going on behind them...as if that sort of thing happens all the time!
