    He's pinned between the car and the wall in the garage. His wife can't hear his calls for help... she's visiting family for the holidays. His laptop is just out of reach, so he can't ask his fellow HAMBers to come save him.:eek:

  3. Maybe he has tried an idea or two from here and his car is firmly parked in the garage of the house across the road, just dreaming out loud. JW :)

    Maybe it dawned on him that if he can't even figure out how to get it into the garage he hasn't got a hope in hell of building it. So he called the junk yard and now he spends his Saturday mornings watching cartoons and eating Froot Loops.

    Shit Grumpy! How in the hell does he manage to get the car on the camel? I think that needs a new separate thread.
     
  10. We can just tack it on to this tread and keep it going till next Christmas :) JW
     
  11. I will not be posting for a few days. I went to car stuck girls web site. I am looking for a workable solution for this situation. He might have to wear a mini skirt and high heels.

    Yes, I went to post 50

    He just needs some huge tires on the back and tiny ones on the front. Then with the slope of the car greater than that of the driveway, the trip will be downhill, not uphill. Simple physics, really.

    Come on people this isn't rocket science. A simple car elevator will suffice....

    Second the motion!! LOL!!
     
  24. What about a vacuum transfer tube like they have at the drive thru bank teller ?

    That way you could use it to suck anything right up the drive way or down.
    Think how much fun that would be for the kids catching the school bus.
     
  25. I'll get this thread to 15 pages -
    Hold my beer watch this !
     
  26. Just build a honest to goodness monster garage.
    Use a garbage truck hydraulic arm to reach down the drive and put the car in the garage. Judt like it picks the cans up and empties them.

    You could use this to take the trash out too.

    Maybe the kids too, might like it better than the vacuum transfer tube !
     
  27. If it were mine I would seriously think about adding a lift up drive way. Much like a tilt bed trailer.
    Once the car gets onto the drive , it would raise itself to level or a slight slope into the garage.
    Would be easier to go downhill in and out of the garage.
    This would be phase 1
     
  28. Phase 2 .

    Now that your driveway lifts up, it would be easy to excavate under your existing garage and make it one level under ground.
    Drive way up - drive right into lower level.
    Driveway down - nobody knows . Be the first to fool the zoning board and play batman
