Lead Sled

A lead sled is a car that has had extensive body fill work done with lead. (Lead was used prior to Bondo to fill in the holes and to do body work.)

My Grandpa's old Mercury is a lead sled due to all the repairs he had to make to in back in the 50's.

Slang. Used in reference to an aircraft's inability to stop after touching down for a landing. Not suggested for short runways.

"Whoa, hold up, were gonna land where?!? Dude, this thing is a lead sled, were gonna be runway pizza for sure!"

Lead Sled

A big old heavy car that handles like a boat and may or may not go fast in a straight line

This old lead sled may be fast in a drag race, but if you think you can take that winding mountain pass at any speed in it, you're crazy
