You would in a sense take trees and stack up horizontally to create walls and build a roof by the same method. If you plan it first you can estimate how many and what size trees you will be expected to use for the project. Create openings in walls for windows and some skylights in roof for light, there are several ways to use timber for structural framing. You could even use rooted trees as corner post.

For parts that are large, some auto salvage yards will haul them for you. This is something to ask when you make the phone call. Some people will buy the entire vehicle in order to scrap it themselves. Other parts such as trunk lids, hoods, door panels, and roofs can be too large for some to haul as well. If you need them to haul it for you, ask them how much they will do it for. Make sure that you comparison shop if you feel the price is too steep. If no one else can do any better or they don’t have the part, you can always call them back and tell them you will be there to make the purchase.

I was so thankful for the sunshine and warmth. It felt good. I watched as the bikers gathered into small groups and talked with one another. I smelled the sweet fragrance of a cigar and searched for the man it belonged to. It smelled good. Something about it made me think about sitting next to a warm fire all cozy and warm. Then, I heard my husband talking and looked up to see him walking toward me with a chocolate ice cream cone. We shared the ice cream. It tasted good. Cold, but good. As we took turns eating the ice cream we met Cindy. She told us it was her first ride by herself. WooHoo! I wasn’t the only virgin on the ride!

Before you go about to salvaging your car, do your homework well. Analyze the worth of your vehicle by checking on the prevailing market value. This is important as then you will be in a condition to negotiate with the car dismantlers for getting a good price. Also, see if there are any buyers available who would be interested in buying your car, so as to create competition.

Keep in mind that junkyard auto are similar to swap meets in that most prices are negotiable. This is especially true when you’re buying parts that are not in good condition. Ask for a discount or offer a lower price. Junkyards will often agree just to move the inventory. That being said, you can expect to pay nearly half of the cost of a new part. For example, a water pump for a BMW 740i may cost $140 new. Expect to pay $70 (in cash) at the junkyard.

Materials produced through scrap metals are comparatively cheaper. Therefore, people can easily afford to buy things that are made of discarded metals. However, it does not mean that the quality of products made of discarded metals is low. For example, the structure of lots of cars are made of scrap metals. And it is a fact that cars made of scrap alloys last long.
