    I scrap Cars & Lite Trucks in the SouthEast MA Area >> No Keys> No TITLE > NO PROBLEM

    Hi All
    Like the Title says
    I scrap cars and lite trucks in the Southeast Ma area
    One man operation, so most times I can pay more then the others
    I have my own tire machine, so I pull aluminum wheels and sell separate
    I pull as much copper wire out as I can in 10 mins
    Of course I also pull the radiator and sell them when I bring the rims in
    I check with RAS Cores in RI for anything they are paying for
    And the rest goes to ZIONS in Middleboro Ma 508-946-2383
    You know what they say >> Bring your IRON to Walter ZION
    I also make a run about once a month with the rims, Alternators, wire and Radiators

    Sometimes I get lucky and get a decent one that can be sold for parts on either eBay or Craigs

    Sometimes I will pull parts to sell on eBay
    Nothing big >> Easy to pull >> Easy to store >> Easy to ship
    Head light assemblies
    Tail Light assemblies
    Window motors
    Side view mirrors
    To name a few



    I have a Cat guy that always pays top dollar >> Bill at Coreagains
    He comes by when I need him
    Since he is paying top dollar
    He also collects most of the big yards in the area

    As long as it is 10 years old
    and they have some kind of paper work that shows they owned it
    I am OK with it.
    Not wanting to go to jail >> and having spent time in the Navy
    I do understand CYA and get all the information about the vehicle and person selling it to me

    I also have been doing this for more then a couple years and walk away if the situation does not look right

    Sorry, John, That really put me in mind of a guy who was just picking up "abandoned" vehicles, if they were setting too close to the road ; )

    Hi John
    There is a scrap yard down your way ( Bridgewater , W. Bridgewater , Middleboro ? , it wasn't Zion ) that just picked up a Ford Explorer with a blown tranny from my buddy's garage while I was getting tires mounted that loaded it up and paid him $ 650 cash for it .
    I see there only paying $ 165 a ton in Bridgewater today , up this way it's around $ 200 +/-
    But the prices have been dropping from Fri. to Mon. , just like the rest of the country .
    Bob
