The yards around here have their cars up pretty high already. They take a car rim and lay it down flat, then they stand another one on top of it and weld the two together. They put one at each end of the rocker panel, pretty good little set-up...

Every now and again you'll get one that you'll have to raise up a little higher (like when you drop the motor and tranny out of a front wheel drive car via subframe.) In those cases, I take the huge a-framed overhead crane/cherry picker/beast and lift the car with that... :D

It's a real nice set-up. I'll get some pictures next time I go!!!!!

A garage makes it alot easier, but I work outside alot..

I work outside alot. I went to pick n pull and yanked out a 5.2 liter out of a jeep g/c last week, it was about 20 degrees and snowing...

Luckly somebody already got the transmission so it came out pretty fast...

this makes me wish i had a garage. i would love to have a place to put a parts car and dismantle it...

I'm not necesarrily good at fixing cars. If its not a bolt on part, I usually let someone else do the work..

But believe me, I can take stuff apart like nobody else, and I like doing it...

Selling around here is sometimes iffy... It would seem more people are finally starting to use it in this area :)

Craigslist is good...

Evidently just about anything will sell fast now a days with a decent price... I just posted my tractor with all it's accessories (non-running) and my old Harley (also non running and rusted to hell I might add) on craigslist yesterday morning and both of them gone the same day :D

cargodz wrote:Yeah, you're kinda forced to sell S-10 parts at relatively decent prices if you want to sell them as S-10s are a dime a dozen and pretty easy to come by in any junk yard.
I don't know about down there, but up here in Ohio you have to be a licensed automotive shop or junkyard to sell used cats now... They changed the law cause to many people were stealing them off cars in parking and used car lots.
It's been a while since I sold any, but I havent heard anything like that down here...

I have a close friend who owns a car dealership/garage, and a recyling business (alum, copper, ect), so I'm not overally concerned about it...

I dont know, parts are selling fast so it doesnt matter to me... :happy055:
