Putting old iron to work :)

[PhilJohnson]

I used my trusty 65 F100 to haul in a load of scrap. I've been hauling in a bunch lately to help pay for a new ride I just bought (53 210). So far I've managed to pay for 300 bucks of the 550 dollar purchase price with scrap metal money.

My 51 Chevy has been getting a little bit of a work out too. I used it to haul some wood from the fallen down barn. I've been using the old barn wood for fire wood. The ole truck's bottom end sounds sickly, hopefully it'll hold out 'till spring

Thats great seeing those trucks work. That scrap ends up bringing more then you think.I had a little pile in the back of my truck,didnt know if it was even worth weighing in,but then it was over thirty bucks.

It's always a happy day when the scrap guy rolls up at my shop , that's like free lunch for two weeks .
