Which means they also have a huge inventory. In business at this location since 1997, they buy scrap trucks, cars, trailers, buses, vans and RVs. After parting out anything of resale value and removing most non metallic parts, they crush the vehicles, which are then shredded and recycled in their entirety.

This could be a good place for the home mechanic to pick up some really cheap fixer-uppers. When I was there, a relatively new Dakota four wheel drive pickup came up which had a broken front axle. The rest of the truck was almost pristine. Also, their inventory is large enough that there's a good chance they will have the part you need.
