<VV> RE cutting up cars to take to the scraper

[Jedd Hebrink]

 My son and I used a reciprocating saw to chunk up a 72 Cougar.  Made four
manageable pieces out of it that we could drive off to the recycler in my
truck.  We were using a Harbor Freight saw, and in the end, we used it up.
But it was still a cheap solution to getting the hulk of scrap metal off the
property.  Took us about an hour, but it was a lot of fun.

I have never used a torch to cut up a car, to much of a hassle and the cost
for gas as well. With a sawzall and a pack of blades a 12.00 cost you can
have at it. I cut up a 65 in roughly an hour, it takes longer to load &
remove. The newer the car the quicker it take to cut up I blew through a 94
Escort in 30 minutes. It is a bit noisy but it is the best was to remove a
car. I sure a corvair wagon may take longer but look it over and see where
it can be cut for sizable pieces, just my take on the problem at hand.
