    Pink was a popular color back in the 50s. I busted up an old pink one about 20 years ago doing a reno. Cast used to get more than shred or
    light steel. Have not taken any to the yard lately.

    Hey SkWrapper, Here’s a couple of tips for you & whomever…. Buy a cheap harbor freight winch and mount to front of truck bed. Now you just need a 2 x 6 to ramp the heavy stuff into the bed. Also buy a set of ramp ends to mount to the 2X6 so it stays put. Or mount an angle to the tail gate and another one on the board. Run the winch remote with one hand and guide it up with the other. Make friends with a mechanic or brake shop. A friend of mine gets much better pricing for brake rotors at All recycling.
