The pics of the Buick don't show any rust, regardless, it's still a 3700lb car.

I was just joking about that.

Sarcasm on the internet can be tough...

Scrap is really low right now, only $90/ton, so the car only fetched $175. But it's gone!

Nothing like driving a car off the trailer at the junkyard.

I don't understand giving scrap steel prices for what must be 5x that in parts value.

Let's recap. I was there when you bought the Caprice. Rusty. I was there when you bought the Riviera. Rusty. And I was there when you bought the Ranger. Rusty but still road worthy. I was also there when you bought the Fleetwood. Still good. So the lesson is....B/D-bodies are correct.

Don't bring you to buy rusty cars?

Travel south for future car purchases.

After dealing with Jenn's Seville (which was essentially a Florida car as it spent every winter except for the last 2 in Florida) and seeing how nice it is to work on a non-rusty car, I plan on doing that for cars past the BMW.
