Episode 32: JunkyardsThis week we talk about the epic automotive roll of the dice that is junkyard parts. First off, junkyard parts are easily one of the best examples of recycling on the planet- if the parts are any good that is. Some stuff is easy to tell if its good or bad, sometimes it takes a leakdown test to figure out if its any good or not. A lot of junkyard parts need increased scrutiny though, but often times they are so cheap people are willing to roll the dice. We also talk “pick and pulls” which can be pretty fantastic if you know what you're looking for and bring the right tools. Finally we talk wholesale recycling in terms of the beloved “parts car” which can be one of the best value purchases ever. Also, Uncle Jimmy explains why sharing is not caring at pick and pulls and about buying 70’s Oldsmobiles for $50.This week’s episode is sponsored by our friends at KB Tools.
