For straightening and painting - Toyota Corolla, 1.2 L, 1974

I disassembled the salon, cleaned almost all of the paint, and cleaned out the rusty places as well. Now the bare body with one seat glass (it was dangerous to get them, dry rubber bands) and towed by the wheel to the station, to straightening. Towed with a terrible creak - converging front wheels squeaked, giving the last signs of tread to the asphalt. Straightening ... How this process took place is not worth describing here. I can only say one thing: the straightener, who has gone through, pulled his face ... In the end, another master finished the car. The bonnet was welded, the front fenders were slightly altered - the decorative cover of the right headlight was broken. Prepared for painting.
We bought three liters of ML-ki, red (Rubin110 according to Sadolyun's classification). We gave the car to paint at the former (now) Moskvichevskaya station, where a straightener once worked.
I picked up the car in the second half of the day, and also drag it 50 km to Kacha. I only have the warning triangle on the back, and a Chinese lantern with a receiver and a flashing signal, just in case. Fortunately, the traffic cops stopped us only once, and even then, our acquaintances. When we passed Orlovka it was already getting dark, I kept blinking the emergency light at the approaching cars from behind. And then the "runner" decided to run across the road ... for my tug! How I dodged him - I don't know.

Hmmm ... I get goosebumps when I imagine this homegrown Olympic athlete!

Well, yes, the car without everything (wheels and axle) rustles quietly, and it was getting dark ...

That is, behind the tug? Across the cable?
