To me 4WD is more useful off the actual road. I see my fair share of snow and ice in the mountains of NC, but for the most part, I can putz around in 2wd just fine. Its when I'm trying to get to a...

Call around for the best pricing. Eventually you'll settle on a yard and stick with them. Pricing used to be stable for a month or so at a time. But now the market volatility is unreal so no...
I always check under the seats in every junk car. Not just money but knives and jewelry too. Found a 100 dollar bill under the spare in an old Cadillac once. Found a rifle in the trunk of another...
I always used the decent stuff I drained out in my yard vehicles. I had a couple old clunkers to haul tools and parts around in the yard. Used it in the old mower to. I wad picky and wouldn't use...
If you turn it upside down (it has a feed tube that runs to the bottom) and press the handle just very slightly, you can release the pressure without the dry powder coming out. Do it outside, cause...
Glad to be of service. I have a stack of em to work through soon.
Cast aluminum in all likelihood. Take a nice deep cut with file. Shiny chrome on outside, then brass, then white and shiny again. The thin layer of brass is there for the chrome plating process I...

Welcome fellow north carolinian. Industrial circuit breakers can have good silver, but also be alloyed with nasty things like cadmium. Do your homework. This forum is a great place to learn
In my experience with transformers, I use a port a band saw to cut through the welds. It makes short work of the iron. Or I use it to cut the copper on one side, then drive a prybar through the...
Why doesnt cool **** like this ever happen to me

All of them. I actually did a Craigslist ad with the last one I got in and people picked it clean.
Subaru parts are in high demand. Part that baby out. I can't keep suby stuff in my yard.
I don't pull them for scrap. Too time intensive. I will pull to sell as used working units. Good money that way
As others have said try to salvage what you can for resale. But to answer your question....Hell yeah it can be scrapped, anything can. Sawzall would make short work of the aluminum, its what I use...
Catalytic converter, battery, radiator, starter, alternator and ac compressor are what I usually grab. And not peacefully, I rip and cut and tug and whatever to get it off there. Just make sure...
Hello from the NW corner of NC!
Whoa a buyer for CRT's? Awesome I think.
I just got .33 a pound a couple weeks ago. NW NC
Hauled in a pretty decent size load of non ferrous yesterday. Hadn't taken anything in a while, was hoarding for better prices and or rainy day fund. Needed the cash so the junk had to go.

I think I'm lucky. Have always found a way to make it when the odds were stacked against me. And now I'm real lucky...after a long nine month battle....my son was born Saturday night at 6:40 pm. :D
Thats some fine eating right there
Ive torn down several of the aluminum reefer trailers. Just a sawzall and a pack of blades. I cut the back door frame off, the front of the trailer where the kingpin/pulling plate are, and make a...
