12 foot planks of WOOD and a passenger. :)

I use mine to transport all kinds of stuff I shouldn't. Finally have a truck now, so that will stop.

I should have taken a picture of my Grand Prix yesterday. It was stuffed with wood boards, a trunk, toolbox, milk crates, 4 full garbage bags, and more.

[RealMcCoy]

I made one trip back from California with two blocks, an 18spline getrag, a couple door panels, and a full toolbox in the back of my red car.... It looked like I had lowered it.

It was kinda funny though... loaded down that heavy, the turbos actually spooled in 1st, thing pulled like a freight train.... LOL

It's often referred to as my shop truck... :D

[j2k4]

When I bought mine, I flew out to Colorado, then drove home with all my luggage and five tires on rims.

Anyway, back to my tomato plants:

When I put them in the car, they were only half as big as in the picture. :wink:

This begs the questions "Why" and "What for"? :)

My girlfriend needed styrofoam to make a beanbag and I happened to drive past a styrofoam factory on a business trip.

Did you reap the benefits of said beanbag? :)

Interesting story and definitely a very nice gesture on your part....

Well it took me a good 20 minutes to get the bag inside the car I literary had to punch, push and kick the back to get it all inside the car.

Once I started driving and the AC removed all the moisture from the air it became like a small blizzard inside the car. Turned out that the outside of the bag was covered in small styrofoam fragments attached to it by moisture which when dried up loosened themselves from the bag. Took me over an hour clean up the mess when I got home and I still occasionally find styrofoam in my car several years later...

I sure got some benefits afterwards but if I had known about the mess it would create in my car I'm doubt full that I'd do it again :rolleyes:

I have had bumper covers in my Stealth before. Talk about punch push and kick. There was also twist, turn, shove, and more.

Yep me too, that's how I picked up all the body parts for the Stealth I'm working on. Took out a chunk of the rear window tint with a 2nd gen R/T bumper. Pretty sure I took out the passenger seat to fit all that stuff in there.

[stealthee]

I shoved a 1g RT rear bumper cover into an ES recently. Guy found me on Craigslist and drove down to get the bumper cover. He had the whole interior in place, and I was still able to make it fit. LOL

[J-Groove]

I had 4 new 265 18" tires in mine last week.

Two in the back seats and two in the passenger seat.

No picture though. :(

Quite a lot fits in a 3/S. I drove my car from Melbourne to Cairns [about 4000 kms] with 4 cases of red wine, full tool kit, 2 suitcases of clothes and a full desktop computer and monitor and a some other things jammed in spaces and a 12" sum in box :lol: damn lucky the rear seats fold flat.

[stealthknight619]

I had two cases of ceiling tile once 24x48" loaded on my stealth. my work truck was getting worked done so I had no choice..Got some weird looks from other contractors at the supply store

Was it CertainTeed brand tile?

Extra points if the answer is 'yes'...:)

I’ve hauled my entire 6 piece drum set a bunch of times. These cars can become quite roomy with the seats down.

[sergechronos]

Most I've ever done was a set of 17s and a set of 18s 800 miles. Also loaded 2 complete doors into the car once..That one really sucked.

That is making it work with what you have. Grapes of Wrath style.

True enough, but that ain't a 3S, so...:wink:
