Do you you get many from the insurance auction? We normally have three or four going at any time. My boss tries to keep a few around for when things get slow. Just painted a 2010 Tacoma yesterday. The only thing that wasn’t repaired / painted was the tailgate.

We are a salvage yard. we get them all from the auction. We dont do too many rebuilds though. however we have been on a roll lately with low milage lesabres
Seems like ya got a good flow going there now ding. We usually do 3-4 rebuilds per year, most of the time they turn a decent profit.
Got the support scabbed in and primed

What is the aluminum foil for?
