Looks like a nice haul. How are those beds?

They are all long beds 1 has the tool box & the other 2 do not have but straight solid rust free, both suppose to run one 3 speed and the other automatic,, its getting harder to find trucks since I see the crushing weight is going up again in the Az/Ca area

Thanks for keeping all of those old slicks out of the crusher. If it wasn't for folks like you, this crazy, obsessive hobby of mine would be darn near impossible!

I assume clean trucks like those are easily sellable once you get 'em back home?

WE Really don't know what to do yet till we see how good they do run, one thing its hard to look at these trucks with real nice core supports in them,,, its too hot yet outside to get started

So are one of those core supports available?

Over the years what you got paid for say a big Caddy you might have gotten 100.00,, now this past year that same car can bring anywheres from 250-350 depending where in the country crushed, of course price varies on a daily basis as well and then course bottom can fall out,, In some of th ebig cities just watch and see how there inventory gets crushed and that will tell how the price is , if the inventory stays there for several months price is low, changes by the week price is good.. some yards we go to vehicles life after brought in can be as low as 1 week, and high as 1 month
