    Nice man. I love seeing pics of people's loads. I was laughing at that Honda civic too then I remembered we had a Toyota Tercel station wagon that was a 4X4 when I was a kid. Looked kind of like that Civic but a little bigger.

    I hope your not selling all those cars as shred without removing anything. I get $150-$300 for a set of tires / wheels as long as theres 40% tread or better. Plus the catalytic converter, ac lines and parts and radiator can bring a decent mount of money in scrap / resale. You could be easily making an extra $300 per vehicle with minimal processing.

    Alot of people like just want quick cash and miss the whole picture. You can also do an ebay search to see what parts are desirable and selling and the cherry pick them.
