shame about the car, but instead of a wreck scene, and needing to wreck another car, you could put it on stands in the yard and have some crew men cutting it up for scrap. Or maybe they are cutting away the damage to repair it ?

Um, er, sell it on - that auction site - as a "specially modified one of a kind" car.

Sounds like a good place to use a flickering LED to simulate the cutting torch...

This would be a neat scene to model...

That is the best wrecked car I have ever seen. Perhaps you should hire your dog out by the hour!

Looks like a good opportunity to have your car-shop with some torches cutting it up for either scrap or future repair.

Do you rent or lease your dogs? I've two cats, but I must say ... two cats can't beat one dog at least on a wreck scene!

Did you contact ER and tell them the package was damaged during shipping? The package was damaged prior to you accepting it and it was the delivery companies error dropping it off in the wrong area.

Now you guys are making me wonder if there could be a market for wrecked train cars, or for renting out dogs to chew your own car for a more personal look.
