So what do you have left until it's drivable?

Not funny Adam! But no, I just took the whole headlight out to do it this time...

Nope Dani's house. I will NEVER return to Pioneer highschool ever haha

access to a lift is pretty epic though. (I'm assuming they have a lift(s)).

Yes they do. Believe it or not, I've never been a fan of lifts because when things fall, there further from the ground haha

if you have something fall off a lift, you have no business working on cars!

and I drove her hard

Not the car, I'm talking about like transmissions and exhaust and such. It's so much easier to drop a transmission onto your chest or ease it to the ground than use those stupid supports and lower it down haha

I second that, and ive done it both ways, and working on a transmission while on the floor is easier, then using a transmission jack

EEK! thats crazy... and something completely different!

did you start picking it up and then it just bucket in the middle?

Came in the next day after leaving it on the lift over night and it was buckled in half. You should take the tools out of the bed before you take it to the mechanic, and not only because tools are valuable and easy to sell.

was it a rusted out frame?

Changed the transmission fluid.

I also rolled over 36K! In 27 months.
