Dave,
I'm probably wrong but I could have sworn that someone mentioned that metal
recyclers weren't interested in the aluminum because of all the foam
insulation?

Subject: [GMCnet] how much aluminum in a GMC ?
Would you believe, I still have the carcass in the back yard.
I was about to call a wrecker several times but then I'd get an email from
someone asking about yet another part.
Many of those efforts fell through.
So there it sits, i can pay a tow truck top haul it 50 miles to the nearest
recycling facility, or, i may persuade a local person to strip it down for
the metal.
If i go that route then I can save the end caps for whoever might need them.
(that I could hide in my yard indefinitely)
So, the key this decision is knowing the approximate weight of the metal.
