you know what they say you can wish in one hand and sh@t in the other and see which ond fills up first. Try praying for work or money I heard that works to. lol. Well I am out gonna go to work and finish cutting up locomotives.

Another case of hard work paying off. Get it while the gett'ins good, always time to rest later. Nice work.

thx everyone :) it was our best week ever we bought 8 cars total still have 3 of them. id like to try cutting on some of those locomotives but our semis will be a challenge for us. we got a hook up with a repo guy and a used car dealer thru our ads. we are gonna print some professional flyers on some card stock to take to every car dealer in the local area giving a minimum buy at 250 up to 500 as long as the car is complete. we figure if they like it they wont have to turn down any trades no matter how bad they can just give us a call before the trade and we can make them an offer and they will be in the clear from the start.

good year for you!! Nice!
