Alec,
Yes it is a task, the weight is the real issue that makes it to expensive for me to handle.  But if you live by a port it could be done.  If the heads were cut off with CT in tact, they would be a legal truck load.  Abandon the mid section and weld the heads together and you have something.  You would have to determine the alloy first to make sure it can be welded of coarse. I agree it is a bit crazy, bit it still would not be the biggest PSUB.
If I had the money, I would be in Alabama with my hyd diamond saw  cutting her into three pieces with a tractor trailer unit
 sitting next to it.  :-)

 Hank, that
 strikes me as a herculean task. I looked her up, she's
 85,000 pounds. Judging from the photo it looks like roughly
 40,000 lbs of steel and 45,000 lbs of rust. Methinks
 you're crazy. That's a compliment.
 Best,
 Alec

 In case
 anyone is interested, the Sever sub is sitting in Alabama in
 a ship yard.  The sub came to the USA in the 90,s and has
 been sitting since.  The Sever is rated for over 6,000 feet
 and is about 36 feet long.  I tried to buy it but the owner
 did not get back to me.  I am sure it can be bought, they
 did not say NO.  My first plan was to haul it home but it
 is just to much trouble to move that far.  My next idea was
 to cut the front head off and the rear head with CT and shit
 that home and weld back together.  You could have a very
 deep diving sub in the 10 ton range.  I am happy to pass on
 any info if anyone wants it.  I would do it but it is just
 to money for me to spend.
