If your happy to spend the time pulling shit apart, advertising it on forums and ebay, and packaging and freighting it you will usually do very well.

I've parted a few trucks now, both modified and stock trucks, and always ended up with more then what i could have sold them whole for.

one more issue actually lol.
as ive never parted out a truck befor always just sold them as whole.
do you guys work in any kind of order or just whatever people ask for? because I don't have a big shed, to work in or storage. do you guys just rip the whole truck down or just part it out as you sell the parts. just don't want to end up with a chassis and body sitting in my front yard with no axles or any way to move it.

Yer thats the shit part about it hey if you don't have the room to put it in parts or just pull off bits at a time what can you do but if parts can sell and the car won't money allways talks. Parts all ways sell so it's up to you you posted it so you must be thinking about it
