I'm not into this particular kind of car so don't know the ins and outs of what tidbits have value, but I'll take in similar stuff in old Fords because that's what I know. It does take knowing what is sought after, and what it's worth. Most people look at the entire pile and see a huge eyesore and PITA to dispose of..............that's why it's priced where it is. If $650 is the asking price that tells me the first guy who waves 5 Benjamins under his nose drags it away. If you've got the time and space you can break one of these down, then advertise the small pieces as well as make the statement "......and I'm disassembling a complete car so if you need other small parts let me know." Something that rusted might not have as many good bits that are salvagable on it, but you'd be surprised how many and how fast $5-10-25 sales add up to 2-3 (sometimes more) times what you pay for the whole. Of course you've got labor/time invested, plus marketing effort, but it's one way to expand the car fund without tapping the rent money. That, or it's just my inner junkman coming out..........Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

I check in everyday and some are better than others. I don't think Brent has anything to do with the forum anymore, but I'm not sure. Hopefully as time moves on the forum will get better.
Where is everybody?
