The trunk of a Taurus is huge, so just fill mine up with what you can cram in there when it's built next week

Thanks, in advance!

Probably totally off topic, but my Father in Law worked for Lockheed, or was it Convair? in San Diego during the 1960-1980 period. A good bit of that time during the VietNam war and the wind down of that conflict.

He and my brother in law, his son, made a very good living off of buying scrap materiels, including brand new items, some of which were worth hundreds if not thousands of dollars for pennies on the dollar. They took a lot of it to swap meets and the rest went to recyclers.

Basically, the Defense Department ordered it and paid for it and if it was not used, the company just dumped it.

Kind of reminds me of some to the stuff we are going through just now with the deficit debate. We do spend a heck of a lot of money for stuff that never gets used or is used in the wrong way.

[SuperHO]

so....where might I find this scrap bin of ya'll's?

 

[Art5]

we had the same situation when I worked at sears. There were things that people would return and store could not sell for a long time, or discontinued items or just parts from some electronics, left from returned items, that broke and employees could not keep non of that, because managment thought that employees would start arguements or fights over that junk or give opportunity to start taking everything, even good product.
SO, they just dumped every week.

I returned to work 2day, come to find out, some of these motors and trannies are what the call "test mules". There like the lease vehicles for the company that they year down to check various components. So basically they built a whole car, drove it a certain amount of miles, then tore it down. Lol. There's a complete car in here somewhere.
