You know you have too much Bronco crap laying around when you scrap out 1020 pounds at the recyclers.

I get rid of the stuff as it comes off the Bronco. Thats the only way to keep me out of trouble with the wife and me getting ideas about building a second one with the spare parts;D

I could have saved alot of trouble with the wife if I would have thought like that with my first Bronco! 20 years (and a new wife) later I am giving all the "stuff" to the scrap yard. :eek: Go figure!

This is a great idea.. Get rid of it as it comes off. Maybe while the wife is out of town this weekend, I should go through the three big plastic tubs and throw away everything not going back on. She would think I cleaned the garage. ;D

It must be a sickness. I never throw anything away seems every time I buy any parts I end up taking along extra stuff that the seller didn't want. I even bought a guys 20 year collection of parts for 200 bucks I hauled 2 20 foot trailers worth out of there. At one of my apartment building I have an big old barn with storage units well I am working on filling up the my third unit with bronco parts.every time one comes empty it seems I just move more bronco parts in the nice part is the wife doesn't see what I put in there.
From reading on here i see I am not the only one with this problem.

Well aren't you just the over-achiever! ;D

No..I have 4 acres of woods and its perfect for just piling the junk up out of sight. After 20 years of piling...%)

If I lived in a housing development, I would be 'that neighbor' that everyone else hates and calls the county on for violating junk ordinances...:p In fact..a few years ago a realtor did threaten to call me in. I had to quickly move like 8 or 9 vehicle carcasses and probably a dozen engines, axles etc so they couldn't be seen from that side of my property.

NGA, what are you doing with caltrops man? You trying to keep people off yer property?

I've got a pile of junk that is in the 2000# range because of a couple of frozen engine blocks that I need to scrap. I'm just waiting until I get my mustang project back running before I take it all in.
