    Shoot. Big negative on both. Previous building owner didn't like people working in the garage so he completely unwired it. :mad:

    definitely could. Never cut anything like this and don't have any tools to do it. Spent like 1/2 an hour wailing on it with a Sawzall and wrecked several metal demolition blades in the process without making as much as a 1/4" deep groove. Odd, cause I seem to remember the roof of my 89 Grand Am presenting no more resistance than butter when I cut it off with a sawzall.

    Hell yeah! Drove it like that for a few months, too. :laugh: (the things I did as a stupid teenager, haha).


    There was a perfectly good reason for it, too. Radiator fan went out so I had to drive with the heat on in town to prevent overheating. Got a new fan, but it looked like you couldn't get the old one out without pulling the damned engine. So, one day in the dead muggy hot of an MN summer got fed up. Figured the quickest, easiest way to deal with the heater on was cut the roof off so the heat just kinda blew away.

    I had an absolutely insane stereo in it too. You could quite literally hear me coming from a mile away (yes, I tested this).

    But .. I did get pulled over in it a lot. Especially in the rain ..... bastards, but to be fair I was a hoodlum back then.
