Chris,

Have you actually scrapped a van for $700?  That's more than twice what a
scrapped van goes for here in Cali.  And we're a lot closer to China!

Cheers,

Jeff

doug.. your insane.   scrap metal is way up.  you can get $700 for this if
you drive it to the scrapyard at the scales, and they dont care if the
tranny is
bad..

hell, ill drive up,  strip all the westy stuff off, and then take it to the
scrapyard and still get more than $600 for it at the scales..
