how to turn your car inside
out
by dan devine (1998)
- assemble your tools in an
orderly fashion near your car.
- be sure to have a pile of
clean rags at your disposal.
- start by removing the battery
to inactivate all systems.
- remove all fluids.
- use your saws-all with a
fine toothed metal blade. there are other tools you can use in addition,
such as an angle-grinder with cut-off blade, snips, hammer and chisel,
and a cutting torch, but you will find the saws-all can perform almost
all the procedures.
- now you just cut your car
apart.
- some may want to first mark
their intended cuts beforehand and others will start right in, relying
on intuition. i prefer the spontaneous approach. look out for falling
or sharp objects.
- now that you have cut your
car into pieces, carefully lay them out in a large open space with room
for walking between.
- take each indivdual piece
and clean it. this procedure must be done with great care so you wll
gain a fuller understanding of where the pieces came from and where
you will put them upon re-assembly.
- after you have cleaned all
the parts you can start the long process of turning your car inside-out.
- remember the insides of
objects are smaller than the outsides.
- the re-assmbly will require
some cutting, bending, and welding. use your own judgment in shaping
your inside-out car.
- you will need to make new
upholstery and carpets.
- a hint for operating your
inside-out car: bear in mind that every operation produces a reversed
effect. you must turn left to go right, forward is backward.
