Subject:Re: More storage space?

I've been threatening to cut a hole under the drivers seat on one of
their crusher cars every time I go to a wrecking yard to see what is
under there and see if it is sealed against the weather.

I'd like to put a VCR and Six Disk CD Changer under here with a locking
door.

Somebody please cut up your van and report back to us.
