What you cut off will not help. Make a cut 90deg from what you did, the whole length of the car and the engine will be sitting on the ground.

or you could wait for the crossmember to rust away from the body, then lift the car off the motor

Man. You guys in the States are way too spoilt. :shock:

Here in Aus, the value of the chassis would far outweigh that of the engine.

NO, just playing around. This car is a rust bucket and the frame on the drivers side is gone. I'm not wasting it though. :mrgreen:
