    Don't turn it down!

    This may be a given, but it is a philosophy I live by in this business. A guy I know came and dropped off an old tonneau cover from his truck (as you may know, you tell people you scrap, they sometimes claim you as their new personal dump) and I thought "great.....now i have to get rid of this thing....not much metal here......." turns out, the box that the cover rolled up into was just covered in a thin plastic layer, underneath.....aluminum! i tore open the fabric and again, aluminum ribs, and lots of them. Sure got some envious looks from the competition at the yard that week moral of the story, have an open mind, and stay curious
