Ground up restoration. The link takes you to a bunch of pictures of the entire restoration, including pictures of the finished bike. I've ridden the bike a total of about 1 mile just to let the engine run once in a while. I have a bunch of extra parts I would toss in too if you're interested. It was really fun doing the restoration, but time to move on to the next project.

It is what it is and you get what you pay for. I will cruze the free section for scrap in my area and take a chance that it is still there if it's close. Mainly I use CList to sell items but no emails...call/text and only give an address if they are ready to come in the next hour and will only hold an item for an hour. Not too many flakes lately, knock on wood. The other extreme is Ebay where you have to pay to play but million of people have access to your goods.

1. your assuming its a girl

2. you are assuming shes barely 18

3. assuming you are right

4. you are assuming you would survive an 18yr old hottie for a week

ps had one of those when I was 38 still married to her 29 yrs later.

As to #4 and the ps...that would explain the mother-in-law comment in some other post I read.

I always threatened my wife that when she turned 40 I was going to trade her in for two-20 year olds. Something said for experience tho and just couldn't do it...maybe at 50 I'll go for two-25 year olds.

Not necessarily a "crazy" ad, other than maybe the price. This could be a gold mine for someone.

10 Acre Auto Salvage yard for sale or trade - $200000 (Jerome, Idaho)


I have a 10 Acre Auto salvage yard 1/2 way between Wendell and Jerome Idaho for sale or possibly trade. The yard has 400+ cars (mainly vintage) and several trailers full of parts, a 1981 mobile home with 320 ft. well, etc. I originally purchased the yard to employ my brother and as an investment, but he turned out the be a crook and is now gone (never go into business with family) leaving me trying to run the yard from Boise.

I am active duty with the USAF and have a 3yr old and a brand new two weeks old and do not have the time and energy to run this yard. I do a good EBAY business with parts that I pull from cars in the yard and there is large potential to do a lot more with some effort. There is an old Wiggins forklift and Chevy 1 ton slant back tow truck that come with the yard to run the business but they both need work. The basic infrastructure is there to build a nice little business, I presently have a guy and his wife who live on site who would be more than willing to work for the new owners if need be.

I own my property free and clear, the taxes are very low, and it is grandfathered as an auto salvage yard in Jerome county, Idaho. There is probably between $100k and $150k worth of metal if you just crushed the entire yard, but thought I would offer it for sale first as I hate to crush the old cars. You could make a lot more parting them out if you have the time and energy. The key to this yard is to live onsite or in the Jerome/Wendell/Twin Falls Idaho area and run this business yourself. I would be willing to sell with a substantial down and carry a note for 5 years, trade for rental property or a house in Boise in the 200K range. I am not interested in a partner or someone who wants to sell parts for me, etc. It is too difficult to find honest people to do this with, that is why I recommend an onsite owner/operator.
