Haul Day — Unloading the Wrecked Leaf

Everything we needed from the Leaf had been removed and we had to unload the rest of the car.   We sold the wheels and tires to a neighbor(Stefan) then called up Will.  Will has a great trailer we loaded the car up on.  Then it was off to the salvage yard.   I think it cost more in gas to drive the car the the salvage yard than we got from the car.  We got about $150 for the metal.  I even had the old 6 cylinder block in the car.  It was an experience I will not soon forget.

Because the car had no wheels they simply stabbed it’s windows out with a fork lift and off it went.  Next was the collection of the $150 where I had to go into a area protected by 10,000 Volt razor wire and bullet proof glass.  Did they give me cash, no they didn’t.  I got a printout that I then took to a ATM type machine and it gave me the cash.     I had no idea a scrap yard needed such security.  

I have to thank Will for his time and getting to share the experience with him.
