    Yep.. at least get the cherries: Converter, Battery, Starter, Alternator and A/C Pump.
    I've never done one of those.. but "Oh baby what I could do to you!"


    I'm so into scrapping.. When my Steel Toe Boots Wear out, I cut the Steel out of them and recycle the Toe!

    I take it into a core buyer. They will send it in, refurb it and put it back out on the market.

    P.S. You can probably pull that rear 3/4 ton axle and sell it on Craigslist for a much better swing than it going in at .10 or .11 an lb as scrap!

    Maybe I'll advertise it and see what happens. I'm not in a populated area here so delivery/pickup is always a concern. As for core buyers, that's new to me ....never met one but I'll ask around. Thanks
