TAMPA - A unique marketing tour buzzed through Tampa on Thursday, as destructors used an industrial strength hacksaw to cut a Nissan in half.

Electric Supply and Lenox hosted Team Hackman, described as a bunch of "master cutters" who used a monster reciprocating saw to gnaw through the car in one minute and 29 seconds.

The team travels around the country cutting cars, buses, trucks, houses, planes, trains and anything else they can get their hands on, said a news release announcing the visit.

Joey Robinson was the cutter on Thursday afternoon, laying blade to the 1993 Nissan at Electric Supply on North Manhattan Avenue.
