Back in the 1900's they used to jack up on side of the model A
and attach a hub the blted to the wooden spokes to run such things
as washing machines and buzz saws. Would the be possible to do
with todays cars? Some kind of bolt on to the driving wheels that
could then be belted to a generator. Ofcourse you wouldn't want
to do this to some gas hog.

Heck, make a little dynamometer(?)-like dealie where you drive up onto
it, put chocks under the other wheels, and rev up the engine. It could
have a shaft going to other things, or just an alternator or something...
