    Aluminum Truck Topper

    I have an aluminum truck topper almost identical to the one in this picture http://www.truck-gear-supercenter.co...0Doors_jpg.jpg



    It's unusable and unsaleable as-is.
    What would you recommend I do with it?

    If your intentions are scrapping it sell as breakage. I took one apart once and it was a pita with lots of garbage to get rid of.

    if it has that rack on it like in the picture I'd take that off and sell it, give it away, swap for more scrap, or something better than scrap
