I have been hoarding parts for years. I had two sheds FULL and several out buildings stuffed. I used to sell a fair amount of these parts on EBay and Craigslist. It just is not worth the bother anymore with EBay's buyer friendly policies and Craigslist's scammers. After getting cheated out of Ebay sold parts and swamped with scammers I had enough. I got sick of fellows showing up an treating everything like it was junk and or low balling everything.
I had a couple of salvage yard guys come and look at buying the entire lot. The one just told me he was not interested right now. The other fellow made a low ball offer with demands that I help load everything. His offer was half of scrap price. He was trying to skin me.
So I sorted through the stuff the last few months. I saved maybe 20-30% of it. The rest was loaded onto roll offs this last week. I did not have to touch anything that was loaded. The buyer did it all. HE weighed them a locally. I would follow him to the scale and he wrote me a check for the amount right then. No poor mouthing or fooling around. I ended up getting $190 a ton for it. Got enough out of it that I am going to look at a newer 1/2 ton pickup for my daily driver.
I now have some shed room cleared out. My son needs it to store the parts he is accumulating from his repair and rebuild operation. He still does farm equipment repairs but with fewer smaller farmers it does not keep the doors open. He took training to work on cars/trucks. He does repair work on autos for selected customers. He is making the best money on repairing car and trucks for resale. He has three different used car dealers that he has been selling the units too. Less fuss and bother than direct retail selling to the general public.

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
