Default Something to make you all feel good....

well heading into the Holiday weekend and wanting a little extra money I decided to clean up a little around the shop...

well before you know it I had the F 150 backed into the shop and loading it with engines going to the scrap heap...

engines I have had laying on the floor..

all of them were Small Block Chevy engines...lol righteously in the back of the Ford heading to the scrap yard...lol

I thought it was funny and thought I;d share it with you...

Gas for the F150 10.00

time loading the steel 1 hour

seeing the faces on the scrappers as I come rolling in with a Ford loaded with Chevy Parts PRICELESS....

I had 3 engines in the truck and it was squatting really good but I left 106.00 richer

Beer money

It's been many years for me. You need something more natural, something that grows like a weed.

Three engines (900lbs +/-) netted you $106? I thought it woullda been more than that. IDK about scrap metal prices... maybe its just cause they were Chevy parts.
