I like to refer to the oxy torch as "the big red wrench" and the sawzall is just...the sawzall LOL. Both are invaluable tools in the scrap yard...I once had to remove the front and rear bumpers from a trashed 58 Plymouth Belvedere 2dr Sport Coupe (yes in fact it was red and white...) with nothing but a hacksaw, a box of blades, a 3" wide chisel and a mini sledge because I didnt have my sawzall in the truck that day...it was horrible...but I ended up making a 600% profit off of the parts so it was worth it.

Well, as I said it was worth it...the 58 Plymouth had the ultra-rare bumper wings still on it, but the bolts were too rusted to do anything with, so my only choice if I wanted to make money was to cut. It took me about 3 hours, and I paid $40 total for all for bumper wings...then I turned around and sold them for a LOT of money...it was a good day
