Shop around. After you’ve done a little road work call up a few salvagers in you area and get some quotes. If you know how much their getting per pound and what parts they can sale to make it more worth their time, then you can keep from getting taken to the cleaners.
Once you have chosen a yard interested in the used auto parts in your car, go through your car and remove everything. The owner’s manual, title, and keys are all that the auto salvage yard wants or needs for the car. Once you turn the car over to them, they are not going to let you go back through it for the personal items you forgot.
Most junk yards that offer cash for cars will pick up your vehicle for free, as it is in their financial interest to do so. If a salvage lot that pays cash for junk cars says that it must subtract a towing fee from the price of the vehicle, you should find another buyer that will tow the car for free.
I expect that after just a few encounters with the local crooks, all they would have to hear in the middle of the night is a loud bang from a big tail smacking a fender and they would be over the fence, out of the rental car, and trying to look innocent in just a few seconds. Not long after, “My Wife is Meaner than a Junkyard Beaver” starts to climb the country charts.
So where can you find salvage WWII vehicles? I doubt you will be able to go to your local junk yard and find a old WWII vehicle. These trucks and cars are most certainly long gone. The junk yard are able to get too much of a payoff from these metals to have them just sit around. No, I bet the best place to find these vehicles are in private yards.
Once this is done, the next step is to get rid of all the things you don’t want anymore. Having a yard sale is a good way to dump all of your junk on someone else. Make sure that you go through the throw away pile as well. If you think there are some things that can be fixed, maybe you should consider donating them to some charitable organization before just throwing them in the trash. If there are things that can be recycled you should do that as well, to cut down your impact on the environment.
The rest of our living space was one 10 x 12 room, which had been configured to include the 3 ft square shower, the shower curtain of which faced the living room, and the only bathroom. The, so-called, bathroom had only a toilet stool and a small sink. It’s door opened into the living room. The washing machine would have to be in, what was left of, the living room, too.
