The stupidest thing I have ever done...
So many stories from my misspent youth, we once towed a car about 10 miles, mainly highway to the shredder, using a chain, and a pair of vise grips for a steering wheel, car had little to no brakes but that never stopped us. At least that was in the summer, another time we towed a 68 or 69 Coronet 440 a good 20 miles, all highway, on a frigid January night, after spending at least 2 to 3 hours shovelling a path through 3 feet of snow to get to it, and shovel around it. We of course used a chain, had no idea if the brakes worked at all, and the car had no windshield. My friend got the car for free, but it had to be removed that weekend. In the end I don't think he ever used anything from it, as he was working on a 69 Dart at the time, probably ended up scrapping it.
