@@JamesK7911crushed! Do you understand how many cars these people get daily? Far more profitable to scrap the car for metal than it is to sit on used parts for who knows how long.
@@donniev8181 And do you know how many car parts are actually used parts… a lot and many we may not even know as buyer. Particularly in cars over 10 years old… 🤷♂️ many of those parts are able to be saved and last longer
Find the owners of those pictures! I’m sure they’ll come for them eventually.. they always do.. maybe more business in the future if you do end up having them! 😎👍🏼
I would gather the pictures and put them all in a large plastic freezer bag from the buck store. Tag the bag from the car the pictures came from. Pictures memories life is important. Maybe one day the pictures will be picked up. Don't ever throw them out no matter what the reason is.
yeah kind of sad people lose nice memories like that. Happened to me when my ex's family kicked me out of the home I built on their property. Lost a lot of sentimental things, and one of my dogs.
My dad had one. It rusted its balls off cuz it was always sitting. Then the fuel pump died. And finally the engine seized up. It had a nice interior with the king ranch trim. But overall its a terrible vehicle to have sitting around all the time.
I have a question: does your team empty all the crap and garbage out of the cars before they are crushed? and from watching your videos I see you drain fluids. What else do you have to do to the cars before the crusher? Final thought after watching your videos, I'm going to be applying some weather resistant product to the frame of my vehicle - seeing all the rust is mind blowing.
Yeah Saab parts can be tough to get sometimes, it looks like that particular one is in decent shape. Motor is probably good, Saabs are reliable but finicky cars, so hopefully he did part it out. Someone could really use those parts for their 900
The reason Saab's keys are in the center is to protect the drivers' knee caps during a frontal impact. I doubt anyone knew that.
That's pretty cool actually, my step dad got in a wreck hooning a golf cart and got the key impaled in his leg
@@ethandegge3127 Hope he is feeling better. So sorry to hear that!
@frankm7707 that was a long time ago 😂 he was a kid then, he has a lot of crazy stories from his childhood
Anyone who knows Saabs knows that.
@@ethandegge3127lol that's what step dads get for beating their step children
No doubt that Camry will fire right up.
Unless the electrical system was played with
I hope these vehicles all get parted out before meeting the crush. The front body panels and doors on the F-150 are immaculate

@JamesK7911 they are not going to sit on Ford fenders, they're a dime a dozen and worth more in scrap. Is this your first time watching their videos?
I think the saab is still in good nick
Love the rust kick . Still waiting for the foot to get stuck from kicking lol

@@drewmurray2583 That can be hard because that is malicious to do, too someone!
that f-150 looks like it could be a comfy plow truck

Show the frame on that f150. $100 says it has newer leaf spring shackles and a broken frame. Spare tire holder is also dissolved by salt.
What's the best thing you've ever found in a car?
There we go!!😂😂

How could you leave behind a perfectly good handicap parking sign?
Shout out to the anonymous people in the pictures. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
A handy handycapped permit 😆
Ha, whose is that kid
The traverse looks pretty clean. A motor swap could probably make it saveable.
The motors cost more than the entire vehicle.
@@autopartscity-Illinois You are 100% correct, and labor is a total killer too!.
What's that yellow car in the background
The Saab and the fourd could be parts cars. Did you throw them in the crusher yet?
My aunt and uncle had a 93 Camry in Chicago, that exact same color up until 5 years ago or so, sold it for $300. I wonder if that’s it.
Saab had heated seats???
The Saab and Ford couldbe a parts car
