I answered an ad for a Mac 11 drawer 1000 tool box on Craigslist for $500. My only interest was flipping it. It turned out to be a memorable evening.
He had a detached garage missing the overhead door and a yard full of stuff that probably should have been in the garage. The box was in the driveway under a tarp. It had apparently been sitting outside for some time all the drawer slides were stiff. The lock cylinder and most of the drawer lock hardware was missing. Someone had covered the top of the box in sheet metal and painted some kind of mural on the metal. It looked like the box had been touched up with a spray can at one time.
I mentioned getting a trailer but he thought we could get it into the back of my Ford Windstar if I pushed the seats forward. He said he had to leave but if I wanted to come back with a trailer his wife was a big girl and could help me load the box.
He operated a towing business with a roll back. He pointed out the the sign on the front of the hood. Phonetically it said Will F---- for a cheap tow. This guy was all class.

I know you said big girl but the whole story reminded me of this scene from "Planes trains and automobiles!!!
