When I made the down payment on the Bug, I only brought home the engine, bumpers, running boards, and chrome. That meant the actual body (or "chassis") of the Bug still had to be brought home.
Before I went to get the chassis of the Bug, I had to get something to bring it home on. In case you're wondering why I couldn't just drive it home, let me remind you that the engine was at home in pieces at the time (and still is). Anyway, I went to U-haul to rent a trailer. as luck would have it, the biggest trailer they had was to small (the six foot wide trailer was being taken just as I arrived). As a result, I had to settle for a tow dolly. This was not the best thing that could have happened, as all the tires were in need of replacement and I didn't want them on the road. When I went to pick up the Bug, it turned out the previous owner had a spare hood that looked as if it was better than the original, so I stuck it in the back of the van and took it. Luckily, the Bug did not pop any tires on the way home.
