Wow, that sounds like some good deals.

We've got a new yard that just opened up late last year called Take-A-Part. They charge $2 just to get into the yard but everything is extremely cheap. Mainly because you have to bring your own tools and you pull everything yourself. They don't even take an inventory of what they have.

To give an example, I pulled a hitch receiver for a buddy's 3/4 ton Chevy that came off of another 3/4 ton Chevy and they only charged me $18. You can buy any V8 engine for $150. They'll rent you an engine hoist and a torch if you need them though.

I love that place. Me and a buddy will just go sometimes just to walk around. Junk yards are like walking around a mall for me. I could spend all day shopping there. Haha
