Yes.  However I did get the car pushed into the garage.  I would be so worried about hurting the darn car - attaching something to it.  Blah, I here by swear never to touch said camero again.  Patty

This reminds me of when I was in Ohio and my wife called from Colorado.  She was in the garage doing laundry and somehow the back garage door got opened and the dog happened to be chasing a cat at the time and they ran into the garage at fulll steam, at which time the cat jumped up on the car and the dog tried to get her and a hedge trimmer got knocked off a nail on the wall, falling directly on the top fender of my 1964 Olds 442.  It put a deep, quarter-sized dent in it and took the paint off.  When she called I could tell something was up.  When she told me, I took a few minutes to compose myself and called her back telling her everything would be fine.  It was.  

Your situation will be too.  It's just a machine, it can be fixed.

Good to hear you got the car back in.   With the come along and chain you hook up to the frame NOT  to the BUMPER.  

The come-along got my friends and I out of many a mudhole in Maine in my youth.

ETA:  You have the son attach it, that way you are cleared of any wrong doing.

1) Throw CLEAN horse blankets over the ass end of the car so that if it does hail, the car doesn't get kluged-up.  Right-o

2) Have your kids help you push the car back into the garage.  Daughter is useless with headache in house.  Son is trying to help.  The darn car weighs a ton.
3) WTF is an "o-coke"?

 Its a thing a ma jig that sticks at the end of the gear shift, it is some leaver that won't budge so I can get the car into park.  Only GOD knows why its there - must be so wives can't drive car.

You have several dogs.. hook them and have them pull while son pushes!

edit.  i see the problem is resolved.  good work, thata girl, et al.

I've owned my Camaro for going on 4 years and my wife has never even sat in the drivers seat.
Not because I ever told her not to...she's just scared she might scratch,dent, crinkle, write off, burn, roll it.
However..I did sit her in the passenger seat and explain how to start it (not that she needed a lesson as she has been driving a stick car ever since I taught her about 18 years ago) so if she ever did have to move it she would at least know how.
Sounds like your hubby needs to give you a lesson too Patty.
He would feel pretty shitty if something happened to it because you couldn't operate the gear shift.

Either that or stay out of Man Land..



I can drive a stick, but yes he does need to show me how to work that darn lever that locks it in nuetral.  This car is actually an automatic.
