As for scrap most of it comes in inside the cars or I get it from site clean ups for Free and haul it in either by borrowing a friends truck or using the car or if my cousin has his car carrier at the job site he also hauls for me.
The ION was painted flat black but was spray painted tonight purple, white, and a few other colors due to so much rust nothing outside or underneath could be saved. Most of the cars had a good amount of parts available excluding one and the jeep and blazer have had alot of attention. The Ford Expedition wasnt listed on craigslist or Facebook groups yet but will be soon as I get it drained and the converters removed. The front tires on it are brand new and the back are in excellent shape with a almost new full size spare as well.
All the vehicles pictured plus the ones coming in soon will be crushed by AIM Recycling from Bangor Maine in a few weeks. They drain the vehicles for us and remove any converters we couldnt get when they arrived and haul them to saint john in Canada for shredding.
I was just wondering about trailers and such.... just doing the math... If it was possible to have a truck'/ trailer to haul some of these cars.... Cause I'm figuring that if you both are shooting for 100 cars a piece even at $75 delivered for 100 cars you are at about $7500... thus $4500 for your truck/trailer and 3000 for gas (and could go up from there) & just figure if you are multiplying it to 200 that's at a 9000 truck/trailer and 6000 for gas... roughly... also how do you get them to the yard to get paid....
What makes this worth while for you? verses having your own truck may I ask?
Also IDK how much time you have or that.... but I know 1st hand on the weight of the Saturn plastic, would it be worth your time pulling the body panels and setting on it to sell to some one that needs a fender or that to paint (This is what I have now.... panels upon panels of parts Saturns... thus my name)
