    Off to the JUNKYARD-scrapping donor vehicle

     



    Time to recoup some money on the donor vehicle..!!

    Cost of donor=$300.
    price for scrap =$190 (it weighed 5000 lbs with no engine/trans)
    engine/tranny cost=$110
    Plus i got a bunch of other goodies.

    My wife towed me 10 miles with a stretch rope to the junkyard! that was a trip!...at the junkyard the ambulance donor POS rolled into my truck and dented my thin Titan bumper...not good. The dude in the big loader fork lifted the beast like it was a toy vehicle.....off to the crusher...but first they needed to remove the insulation etc..I only got $75 per ton due to the "camper" additions of carpet, foam insulation etc...$190 is till better than this ugly beast sitting in my driveway!!!
