A riot shield can come in handy when working with small numbers of zombies. The process of taking off the car door is pretty straightforward since you're not concerned about preserving the wiring. Simply remove the bolts in the hinges connecting the door to the rest of the car and remove the door.

A dead car can still give life. Mirrors can be used to start a fire, seat belts would make incredibly strong rope, not to mention all electrical benefits of a car battery and alternator.

SURVIVAL TIP

burn a tire fora smoke signalA tire can catch fire when heated above 750 degrees Fahrenheit, which is doable for most campfires. A single tire can yield up to 2 gallons of gasoline, which will contribute to a hotter and longer lasting smoke signal, and will be seen miles away.

SURVIVAL TIP

sleep in a trunkto avoid walkersSleeping in the trunk of a car isn't the first choice for most, but it keeps you out of sight for walkers. The average compact car's trunk space is about 12 cubic feet, which means you can fit 2 - 3 people in the trunk of the car for a night if you need to.
