dan, i got a chance to sleep on yer idea. have a couple thoughts. how about leaving the car intact, then make a shaft adapter to bolt to one of the hubs on the front drive wheel to hook a pto shaft up to. if the front disc brakes still work, splice in shut off valves in each front brake lines. apply the brake and close the valve on the side you dont want to turn. that should pin that axle from turning. drive up to the auger, jack up the side of the car that will drive the pto, hook the shaft up, put er in drive and set the cruise. whalla!!!! or, using the same set up, you could cut the whole front section off the car thru the winshield posts and across the floor just behind the door posts, then take the rear axle out and mount it under the front end of the car for a trailer. or just rig a drawbar up off the engine cradle and pull the front end around as a trailer. that way, the radiator, trans and all the necessary wiring are intact, and the hood is still on to keep the engine out of the elements. woo hoo!!!! farmer fabrication!!!
