When I was just out of school I used to go to a lot of garage sales.

Late one Sunday afternoon I stopped at a sale and got talking with the couple, they had sold their home and the moving truck was coming the next day and they just wanted what was left gone.

We agreed on $65 for everything on the lawn and they helped load it on my truck.

First stop the next day was the local consignment auction house where I unloaded everything except a nice Lawnboy commercial mower.

Later on that week after the sale once commission was paid I got exactly $65 for what I had brought in.

The Lawnboy I advertised and ended up trading it for a non running 1965 Honda dream motorcycle.

The motorcycle had electrical issues which I fixed then advertised it for sale.

I accepted a trade of a 1968 Fargo truck that had it's share of problems.

After some repairs to the Fargo it was traded for a 1975 Chevrolet Vega that was actually in pretty good condition.

I was offered a 1973 Monte Carlo and $1000 cash for the Vega.

The Monte Carlo I traded for a 1974 Chevrolet 4x4.

The 4x4 I drove for a while but it was in tough shape so in the end parted it out as at the time there was a strong demand for parts for those trucks.

Work was hard to find at the time so I looked for and did whatever I could to make a few dollars, if that was all wrong then I guess I should be sitting in the corner with you.

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
