Default Creative Repairs

The followings pics were emailed to me...perhaps some of you have already seen them. Although military vehicles are not pictured, these "creative" ideas might work on your mv when those hard to find parts are just not available and a temporary or a quick fix is needed. Enjoy.
Cheers, Terry.

Those photos made me smile and shudder at the same time. Especially the bungee cord/seat-belt combination. Hopefully they are not on the same car as the hose-clamp repaired coil spring, or the tennis ball suspension kit as I fear the seat-belt may come into play soon enough.
