       My baseball bat is a two foot section of 3 inch conduit.  It works 
fine.  At least one helper and preferably two are required.  One holds the 
"bat."  One pushes the car and the third stands on and bounces if required 
the bumper.
       I have not had problems cracking the paint, or not in the areas that 
show.  Maybe I was lucky.
       By the way, I first learned of the baseball trick from Hot Rod 
Magazine.
