Keep or not to keep!

All these old Fords are worth more that scrap prices regardless of condition. I'd find a place to park them or if you have the time post them on e-bay. Someone somewhere needs those parts, the whole truck or title, door tag and frame stamp. Sure hate to see these go to the scrapper. Where are you?

Keep them and don't get rid of them, the price is going to go up on these trucks.

I would have them sitting in the woods with the rest of the boys if they weren't so far away. I'm up in the hills of NY!

I am reminded of a wise, but slightly twisted saying that went "Be thankful for all those moms that threw away their son's Superman #1 comic book back in 1938, for they have greatly increased the value of those that are left"

So I say "Scrap 'em!"

(makes mine worth more!)

instead of scrapping them, offer them forsale for scrapping price. You will be surprised how many people need frame sections, and other sheet metal to fix their rides!
