Sounds like the perfect configuration for preparing the raw materials for the
beer can antenna....

A few years ago QST had an article about a ham who used his two Chrysler K-cars
as a 20 meter beam. He would park them nose-to-nose and connect the feedline to
the bumpers. I don't recall if he used a tuner, but I do remember seeing a photo
of him sitting inside of one element with his rig. Although it wasn't clear from
the writeup, that must have been the driven element of the antenna.
