Junk yard 'whole car' policies, WTH?

The scrap price is not much for old subarus because of weight. A guy I used to know would take cars to the crusher, he'd have to remove the gas tank and the tires and wheels. I gave him two EA81 wagons once, I think he got around $40 for the pair... he was rather pissed.

 

As for the junkyards, few around here keep whole cars for sale, two I know of actually, and I really only know of one or two years that will let you look around a take stuff off yourself.... a lot won't let you in the back.

See, a junkyard isn't a JUNKYARD to me if it isn't you-pull-it... the used parts yards, where they do all the vehicular stripping, in MY area all suck for oddball cars. They are fine, if you drive a 1990 cavalier, or a saturn, or something... but for an old soob, or an even older datsun?? yah right, they arent going to hold on to THAT!! besides, they are more expensive.

I must say I feel bad for you, I couldn't imagine life without my junkyards..
