Dutchman everyone says that about my avatar. I changed it a couple of times but always got asked by a good friend to put the cake back. So I just left it on.

I always share. But today I made banana bread.
I love banna bread. I made a chocolate cake a few days ago. I think there may be one piece left.

Got my parts at the wrecker today. For some stupid reason they don't drain the fluids before putting them in the yard.

Yummy chocolate cake.

They dont drain the fluids because they want people to see what the fluids look like. They drain all the fluids before they crush them or at least most do.

I would have thought it would be an environmental thing to drain them. I just needed a tranny pan so I wasn't really concerned about what the fluids looked like. Just love going to the wreckers though. Just wish I could get superduty parts at a pick a part.

I understand about the superduty parts, but most of the time they are in the special section that no one can get too, unless you are in with the owner.

The pick a part places around here don't have anything newer than mid to late 90's. Most of the other place that have them are quite expensive and don't have many. They say they are quite expensive to buy even when wrecked. These places also don't normally let you wander around the yard.

The ones that I go to you have to sign in and sign a waiver that if you get hurt its on you and not them. But I have 3 that I go to. Know all 3 owners so I can roam and just check things out or get what I need to.

The one I went to today requires signing in and paying a buck. Now no one under 16 is permitted in the yard because some yo-yo's kid got hurt and they sued the owners.

Thanks Arctic, the shield is just the center piece of the coat of arms. The whole thing is the size of a regular sheet of paper. Some of it dates back 900+ years, in York, on my Dad's side.

Zip, there's lots of pick a part right in your neighborhood. Just don't get caught picking that part.

Thats just Fucd I use to be a yard monkey when younger. They drain there fluids out here if they didnt theyd get a huge assd fine man. Where's the oil go when a person comes a pull a pan? Into the ground and soil. If that went on around here Holly crap The Chit that that wreckrt would get into.
Each year the enviroment cops do there rounds here. I wonder why the heck they dont go up there????
