damn carcass!
 

I need to vent, I have an 84 Rabbit for a daily driver with no interior. It has nothing but a driver's seat and a dashboard. Just the other day I smelled something, I thought it was my imagination, oh no it got worse and is getting worse as I'm typing this. Something is very dead and very smelly in my heater box. I mean big like an ostrich and really bad, I went to the car at lunch time and it was full of flies. Where there are flies there are maggots! and tomorrow I have to take it apart pick up this wet maggoty critter and hang him from my antenna to scare his peers from trying this sh!t again. I hope he had a painful death being smacked around at a high speed by the heater fan. That's bad forget I said that, I love animals. I just don't like them rotting.

I express my sympathies, and laughs.
 

Animals in yer heater core always make for good conversation starters later on in life....... ;)

My Mother used to have an old chevy Nova that when she turned on the heat, dead baby mummified mice spit out of the defroster like toast. Did I mention she's terrified of mice? Well needless to say, that was the end of THAT car....

You could wait till the magots finnish the meal, then vacume it out, drive another car for a few days...

Icky! :mad:

mmmmm pizza for lunch

Now you give me tricks of the trade! Well it took most of the morning to get the dash out but I did it. I diconnect all of the vents and peek in to the heater box and what to my suprise but a thick layer of mold and flies on the bottom. I thought to myself where is the critter. I seperated the fan from the vent leading to the engine compartment and low and behold there he is, wrapped around the outside of the fan all bloated and moldy. By him I mean a gigantic RAT. I had to pierce him with a needle nose pliers and pull him from his resting place. I hope his ghost isn't going to haunt me. I have to say I felt sorry and sick to my stomache, but I scrubbed out all of the feces blood, mold, maggots and flies but it still smells. Anybody have some ideas on how to get the stink out, it smells like 409 and death when I went for the test drive. I swer the car is faster now, mabey it was the extra weight. Mabey I should have posted this in the mod forum...Wiat mabey I'll do a how- to.
