Scrapping days. They always get me choked up
I have scrapped many cars. Most of them were Mopars that were rusty or wrecked but a few were off brand cars that were given to me.
I dismantled a 1978 Mercedes convertible like the one in the Hart to Hart TV show. That was the toughest damn car that I ever scrapped. It fought me at every turn with heavy, double walled panels, hard to reach fasteners and oddball design features. I've cut up Dodge trucks, RVs, 3 C bodies, a rusty '68 Satellite wagon and several A body cars.
I have cut up several cars that were pretty much totally stripped of usable parts by the prior owner. Those only provide floor pans, frame rails and body panels. Obviously I prefer to scrap a wrecked but complete car. Those provide all sorts of Mopar specific small parts, screws, clips, window and door latch linkages, wire harnesses, etc.
