Good things to do with Chevy trucks

When I get an organ donor, I slice the back half off with a Sawzall and make a trailer. The truck will never rise again, and I can put the decapitated result to use hauling junk. Don't just flame GM products, kill them and make a buck. Trailers sell easily too.

Another good thing to do with them is fill the truck bed with dirt and plant some tomato plants. Also, if you bend the hood just right, you can actually make a fairly decent doghouse

I'd be worried about what would leach out into the 'mater plants, and I like my dogs way too much to make them live in a GM product.

If I lived somewhere that it snowed pretty good, I would keep the tailgate and use it for either a sled or a snowboard.

I didn't even know that chev made trucks, I knew that they made cars that "drove" like and "looked" like a truck, but as far as I know only Ford make trucks.

Hmm,
Tires can be used for swings for the neighborhood kids, Beds can be turned over to make a good dog house, Axles can be used for weight lifting and bicep curls, cabs can be good target practice and engines make great permanant boat anchors. The engine block can also make a very unique flower planter. You can plant pansies in the cylinder bores and maybe some small bush in the lifter vally. After all Chevys were made for pansies!

How to turn an old Chevy into instant sand!
1) Turn hose on truck
2) Wait five minutes
3) Pull on bowtie lightly
4) Voila, you now have a pile of soft rust. Beat smaller rust chips down into sand.
5) Apply sand where needed.

Chevy: Like a rock, sits there and does nothin. One difference, rocks don't rust like that.
