Pulled a all nighter and what a ride it has been.

Well this Monday i went ball to the wall and covered 3 times my normal routes and really paid off. 2 tons of steel, 15 tvs, 7 pounds brass, 35 pounds copper, lots of wire etc etc etc lots of good stuff. Well im just heading to the scrap yard when i get a call about a guy that just won a few storage lockers and one of my guys i buy stuff off of passed my number along. well he telling me over the phone hes got all this and that and i just think great more crap that im gonna waste money on. So i get there and he got a danm nice pile of computer parts and accessories. I filled up my little civic till i was riding old blind guy style one my way home. Just as im driving past a speed trap BAM 3 more printers in a trash can. pop over and grab them all while the cops think that im going to go crazy and staring me down. So i grab the printers and open a door that i thought had some space and the wall of electronics com spilling out. I got a hurt foot and the cops got a good laugh. Ended up getting back home and i start looking at everything i got. And i think to myself danm i might have just actually did really good on this deal. I wanna take some photos when i wake back up, but im pretty stoked about getting this pile for only 50 bucks, just because i got a clicky key board out of it, 3 new printers, 5 new motherboards still in original casing. guess its time to rock out the ebay now. :-D :cool:

super cool man !

only problem is my pile is finally growing everyday instead of shrinking. just cant get down to the scrap yard fast enough

haul off the big heavy cheap stuff first, will make more room for the smaller more expensive things ;)

Sounds like a problem we all want to have!

Bear, i cut down the larger items i get so they all fit in better, my record in the car is 409 lbs of steel in 1 trip. Unfortunately had a friend go to jail last night so roommate is out bailing him out and looks like im going to miss the trash runs this morning :-(. So im just gonna get to work on this pile and get some pics taken.

Good score! I totaly relate to scraping in a Honda Civic, wife is not impressed at times. it is like the old days playing tetris.

pizzaman...i like the tetris reference. i am also a car scrapper, though its larger, a dodge charger se. my record is 7 tvs at once. 1 up front (couldn't see the side mirror), 3 in the back organized like "tetris", and 3 in the trunk.
