Hi Farmer, You may want to see what you can get on Craig's list for
that Aluminum roofing, with everything in short supply you may
actually make more than scrap pricing. Trading is always good too. I
have a friend that owns a HVAC business and he trades all the time,
good guy to know. How in the heck did that car get on it's roof??<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Mike M<br>

<div>I don't have much scrap now (at least that I want to sell)
:-)</div>
<div>I do have a piece of crap car that a renter left at our
rental house. His wife wrecked it and he was going to save the
engine and tranny but then he got stopped for smoking pot
while on probation for drug charges and went to jail. He was a
good paying renter but his wife was awful. When he got
arrested the first time she voiced her opinion (to me) that it
was silly that he was such a fanatic about paying the rent on
time. She got way behind while he did time but when he got out
he caught it up right away. I talked to the drug task force
people about whether I should toss him out then but they said
that they knew that the "house" was not involved and that it
was kind of handy knowing where he was so I let him stay. The
second time though I refused to take him back. I had already
evicted his wife who sold everything he owned while she was
moving. No title on the piece of crap... It has been about 3
years. It was sitting out in front of the garage on its roof.
I didn't want to get all involved in chasing stuff down so we
took a semi and a skid steer over and flipped it upright and
sat it on the flat bed then out in a back lot here. I have a
friend with a salvage yard and I need to ask him about what
sized pieces it needs to be in... :-) And what parts need to
be used to help anchor some new corner post in concrete...
:-) Just thinking out loud here. :-)<br>
</div>
<div>The poor guy also had a nice motorcycle, a pickup and a
decent other car which his wife forged his signature on the
titles of and sold them. She died shortly after that so he is
just "out". He should have left the pot alone.</div>

<div>I need to check aluminum prices. I need some new painted
steel roofing. I have a lot of new aluminum that my folks
bought at a factory auction back in the 1960's. I have
hundreds of sheets of it that had been a canceled order for a
mobile home factory that had gone under. It's 4' x 10' sheets,
kind of an ugly green/blue/aqua color. I've never miked it but
I am guessing that it is about 26 gauge. I did use some of it
to line a 3,000 bu ear corn crib (Round with a dome roof like
a metal silo but perforated) to hold shelled corn. I have an
Amish business friend that has a large steel business that we
have used a number of times. He has a lot of his own forming
equipment. Maybe he has a potential market and I could work a
deal to trade sheet aluminum for painted steel at some kind of
fair to both of us ratio.<br>
