I had this car at a shop relatives shop. He threatened me that if I don't come down and help him on a job he was going to drag it outside. I did not have a trailer . I only had the tow truck. A friend and I went down there and I got into an argument with the my relative. He thought he had me by the balls because he knew I had no way to get it out of there. But some quick thinking i walked across the street to a another shop and we put it on the roof of my 72 Dog car.

Why did we call it a dog car? Because I had two shepards that would come to the garage with me.. The white shepard thought that was his on the road dog house . So I would leave the passenger window open 24/7 rain or shine and he would stay in there. I could have kept a gold bar on that dash and not have to worry about a thief. I had to let him out so I could get in first so we could go home . And that was a task. No one could even get near that car

I had the body sitting so it would not damage the body I was not concerned about the 72 on the bottom. We used blocking and coma-longed it tight inside the 72.

What is not shown on these picture is how it was seen going up the highway. My friend put his arm up over the chain on one side and I did the same on the other. We put rubber straps from the body to the car front and back. So it looked like we were holding it on with are arms. I drove this thing home up the 4 lane highway passing cars at 60 mph. The looks we got were unforgettable. It was the talk of our town because many saw it on the road. Back then I had the attitude what ever it takes get it done. I got these pictures from some one who followed us home . I sat in the body for one of the pictures
