Why I do stupid things sometimes. It’s the love for the car! Or in this case, some wheels and center caps 🤪

Money well spent. I truly and fully understand the “irreplaceable” nature of the little pieces. And it’s the little pieces that can hurt a car more than the bigger ones. As many of these as you have coming and going I think it looks like it was just another day at the office. Part of the process. Enjoy the weekend!!

You are a clever businessperson. You market your vehicles primarily online so it isn’t necessary to have a shop in an expensive high traffic area. You videos generate some income by themselves but more importantly reach out to potential customers. You have enough mechanical knowledge to make minor repairs. You know and address the pattern failures. I wouldn’t have guessed that it is a better deal to buy the entire salvage yard vehicle than just the parts.

It makes sense to buy the entire car, take off what you may need in the future, I have an '89 town car, and I'm petrified if the day comes when I need a body part, the dealers expensive, and probably discontinued for a 35 year old car

I like your junkyard finds. How come you don’t wind up keeping them and make up a mini junkyard behind your shop? I noticed after you pull out what you need, you get rid of it. But one day may need a fender like the Cadillac.

If you go and download a PDF of the full list of Cash for Clunkers cars that were crushed, a shockingly low amount of old Town Cars were turned in compared to other comparable cars like Cadillac Fleetwood Broughams and such.

Anyone following SMC for a minute knows that an important part of how Anthony is able to offer really nice cars is his parts stash. I have done the same in my junkyard visits. I occasionally find NLA discontinued parts. Sometimes I find newer NLA parts that were replaced when they were more recently available.

Once I saw the shilouette, and concluded it was a 2d gen I knew exactly what you were after! Those 8 window 16" chromes are beautiful! Their center caps may even be harder to find than those for the early 3d gen ChromeTek wheels such as on my '98 Touring Sedan. Crazy, no. Dedicated, yes!!

Bought same color 97 signature but with light tan leather, had the 225/60 thin whitewalls with handling package. Loved the car. Traded it for white metallic with white interior 99 town car touring edition. Loved that one too. But alas, downsized to 2007 Lexus es350.

Wheels, tail lights and grill with that hood ornament are worth more than a couple hundred. He can definitely strip that for plenty. I miss my 97 town car. Silver with black interior black rag top roof. Bought it in 2020 with 46k mi. My favorite car of all time had to own one it was the closest I could get to the triple black I’d always wanted. One of the best cars I’ve ever owned.

Sometimes selling something like this to a stranger… as a reputable dealer of high end products; would be a massive liability to the company and his reputation. Cheap insurance and piece of mind to just make it go away. Just my opinion.
