Loading a Buick into a F250

Well, we are always open to new ideas and new avenues.... and when a 1997 Buick Regal came across our plate for $600, we decided to take it. This isn't the first car that we have dealt with, but it was the first car that we have decided to part. Let me tell you, parting a car seems like a great idea on paper. Once you get into the process though, you realize quickly that there are a LOT of parts on a car!

Once we were done, we loaded it on a car hauler to take to the scrap yard. Right about that time, the local scrapper stopped in. We had told him the week before that he could take it, but he wanted it all cut up, so we decided to handle it ourselves. This time though, he saw how stripped out it was and told us, "If you can get it in my truck, I can give ya $50 for it." That seemed like a better deal than messing around all day taking it to the yard, so we took it.

BK Cruiser Trailer Race Video

Well the BK Cruiser finally hit the racetrack...literally! The BK team was all ready to make it to the original date but the weather was not cooperating. The race got post-poned to June 19th and we could not attend. That didn't stop the Cruiser from getting flopped around the track! Driver "Trailer Racin' Matt" ripped the cruiser around the track a couple times before getting hit head on in turn 4.

Matt told us that the boat was "too big" for the race coordinator's liking to he had to take a chainsaw to it and "perforate" it before it hit the track. Keep in mind this is a 26 foot hard top cabin cruiser on a tandem axle trailer.

Here is the video of the race we found on youtube. If you watch, the BK cruiser comes by the front of the track at :15 seconds and :44 seconds. You can see it again at the top right of the screen at :56 seconds. The race ends for Matt and the cruiser in turn four at 1:10.




Here is a picture of Matt's truck after the race.


We want to thank Matt for being a nut and racing through that mess. That is the biggest boat that we have gotten to Matt's hands, but it will never be the last!

Free Tool Loaner Program

We are starting a new loaner program this summer. For our customers that like to "do it themselves", we would like to help you out even more. If you purchase the parts that you need from us, we will let you borrow any specialty tools that you need for the job. A lot of these tools cost hundreds of dollars and you rarely use them more than once. Let us buy the tools and you can use them when you need them. We just ask for a refundable deposit for the cost of the tool. It's that simple! So if you need to make some repairs on your boat, but you don't have the tool to do so...stop in and get the parts AND the tool that is needed.
