Went to the local pick n pull ther other day.I found a nice b/e body thumbwheel radio and a nice day and night mirror.I was going to buy these parts and sell them to someone who could use them,so I stashed them under the carpet.I proceded to scower the yard for other parts.I took the parts which I found to the counter(without the radio and mirror,couldnt carry everything)and purchased them.I then went back to get the radio and mirror and the car was gone.Litterly picked up and hauled to the crusher within 10 minutes.I was flabergassed.They actually took 1/2 a row of Mopars since I went to the counter.Fella's they are chrushing them faster then we can pull the parts. :banghead:

Really made me sick. :sleepy3:
 
obviously these guys are the opposite of what some scrap yards are becoming, from reading around most yards think they all have 'hemi cudas' or something prices are skyrocketing, and here they are smashing them :cussing: :angry4: why crush them hell i bet a couple parts on any old classic car is worth more then crushing it all. This reminds me of when my dads friend found a duster red, not much for rust, well when he told my dad he said yeah buy it(didnt have cuda, i was mopar hunting) and by the time he got back it was crushed, really sad :( :sad1:
 
Their spinning them for cash TODAY...no waiting around to sell a piece of trim next week, a hubcap next month, a fender someday!
 
Here in Canada we take old rusty hulks and say "Wow, this is workable...let's fix her up" and in California you see a dent and a spec of rust and say "Crush it". Crazy!
 
That is true, I live in central Minnesota and there are several good junk yards, many with a lot of mopars! I wish I had a money tree growing in my back yard, I would go and buy all the good parts up so they don't get crushed! Sometimes I take it for granted that we still have these cars here, you guys on the west coast sure have it tough!! :sad1:
 
Not much open space out there to stack them up, can you imagine how many parts you would have to sell at what 500,000 an acre.
