      Looks like you should have used regualr jackstand with wider legs to stop things like that from happening. Good luck fixing that.

        3 things to remember when jacking up a car:
        Level and solid ground
        Proper jack and jack stands
        Secure jacking location

        You're 0-3.

        I did laugh at the cat on your hood though!

          if your cat wasn't so fat and heavy, you would've been fine.

          that sucks

          I've decided that my car is a girl, she's picky as hell, won't listen to me, always wants to fight me, and when i give her presents it's never good enough and she always wants more.

              Actually, I had proper stands underneath till Thanksgiving weekend when someone asked to borrow them. I got distracted and forgot to lower it down on to some blocks or lumber, then left town for three+ weeks...it rained while gone...I'm a dumbass...etc.

                Bummer man.

                Your Protege looks like it's in rough shape.

                I hope you finally get it started though.
