Got the '58 moved over to the new house on Monday. Gene hit the nail on the head when he said moving sucks- especially when you're one of "those people" who would rather get a root canal than throw any steel pieces away...

Moving.... We had a house out in the country, it had a 24 x 36 garage that was so packed with parts, I only had a single work stall. We lived there 16 years, put it on the market and it sold in 7 days. The guy wanted it in 30 days! Fortunately, I was renting a 40 x 60 building in town. With recruited help, I hauled 10 pickup and car trailer loads of good parts out of the garage in the country, but I ended up scrapping stuff I didn't have time to move. 6,600 lbs of mostly big block Mopar drive train parts!

Then 3 years later, I moved from the 40 x 60 building into a 24 x 30 garage and a 24 x 24 garage with a 6.5' ceiling. I had to be able to work in the 24 x 30 garage. I hauled off another 3 truck and trailer loads of stuff to scrap.

Yea, moving sucks.
We have been here for 22 years. Someone else is going to move us from here.

We don't have a ton of parts to scrap but have amassed a lot of "stuff" in 40 years. Kids are going to need to get rid of it all. From what I am hearing kids now just throw everything out. Jim

If our trash barrel isn't full with normal household stuff each week, I find other stuff laying around to fill it up with. Recently cut up a Lawn Boy mower and fit it in the trash.

Here's one for ya. The difference between "junk" and "stuff"-

Junk is the stuff you throw away. Stuff is the junk you keep.
