We had an 87 Dodge Ram beater truck to do that with. Took down construction signs, construction barrels, green plastic trash cans, a fence. Blew the transmission in it (it was a slushamatic) and sold it to salvage yard for $300. Lotsa fun. :thumbup:

Old car for under $1000? Ever thought of going off the beaten path and picking up a mid-80s Volvo 240? Built like a tank, and can put a tough turbo in it too. Perfect sleeper. Nobody would suspect a thing. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
