I found one like that. '50s truck with a service box. The box and the cab are full of who know how many years of trash. The guy is too lazy to go to the dump so it goes into the carcasses around the property. Anyway, the truck is missing the steering knuckles and front wheels, but is complete otherwise. The cool thing is it has a capstan winch. The guy's mother says "If he can't get $1000 for it he'll take it to the scrap yard". I said
"Good luck. At the price of scrap iron, he's lucky if he gets $300." Then, because of hte capstan winch and the condition of the cab, etc., I offered $1000, if he cleaned out the trash. The guy has never called back. People are amazing.
