The guy said the big copier didn't work. But just to be sure I dropped it loading it into the trailer. It's a heavy sob, didn't realize it's 2 halves. The top half just sits on the base.

Not to give you a hard time, but I think your title mean't to read "my first escrap removal job", as that is not what we classify as junk. Junk removal is things that generally scrappers would just pass on by as not seeing money in the items.

I know, but he is the one that did put the title though, that is what I was referring to.

In all honesty, I was just giving him a hard time. Been countless times when we all have referred to scrap metal as junk.

Great haul, good work.

Got a call once to pick up a scrap car, when I arrived at the guys yeard I had to ask where the car was. Turns our I'm standing right beside it a 1951 Chevy 2 door HT, 6 cyclinder with a poower glide automatic. Could have drove it home, all that was wrong a few spark plugs wires on the wrong plugs a bit of rust on the rocker panels.

I did take in home, then sold it. My personal project car at the time was a 1958 Studebaker Silver Hawk, 2 door HT, V8 with a 3 speed standard with overdrive.
