In Oklahoma By law no proof of ownership is required if the car/truck is more than ten years old if you take it to the scrap yard to get crushed for money.
How do we keep our classics safe with a system like that? Sounds like the powers in charge just want to rid the world of old trucks by any means.

My guess is that’s where the one reported out of Creek County went. Let’s try to keep politics out of the conversation gentlemen so I don’t have to delete the thread.🛠

I'm guessing the same thing, If there are any yards around there like the one down the road from me. They crush a car right away, and dump it on the truck that goes somewhere else. No reports back on that Creek County one yet, But there was one that was stolen by me close to me from a locked garage that went on social media and was found abandoned on the side of the road. You just never know. Keep em locked up in the garage, and sleep in them I guess.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.

When cars stored inside a locked fence outside the school shop I ran started getting ransacked/vandalized, the ones doing it found out this old man has a few sneaky tricks up his sleeve. There's nothing like opening a car door and getting a faceful of ground cayenne pepper! A piece of PVC pipe duct taped to the steering wheel, a piece of broomstick, a bungee cord, and a cotter pin attached to a string and the inside door handle makes an excellent booby trap. A length of 3/4" PVC 2 feet long will hold four BIG cans of pepper!

When the price of recycled steel (for Chinese rebar) reached a high several years ago, a large junk yard in Missoula shut down and started crushing everything. They, at one time, had 31 AD trucks and I got all kinds of good things there. Two 848 heads, 60 psi oil gauge, etc. I could go on and on.

They wouldn't let anyone walk through one more time. They crushed and stacked everything. Here's a picture of a F**d that someone would have liked. There are at least 31 AD trucks in there.
