Does anyone remember the farce when the State's Attorney was trying to raid Satch's place for gambling? Ummmm............. I'm not touching that one! M The State's Attorney must have felt like a boob when he discovered that the leaks on the raids were coming from his office.

OH WOW........ I was just told today that the condition of the building was far worse then the buyers had anticipated upon. Someone / THIEVES had come in and totally taken out ALL of the copper plumbing and the electrical wiring! WTH !!! OK........so where per say did these thieves take this all to be recycled........... hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm I'm sorry but the recycling center here should have to be more accountable as to WHAT is taken in for recycling, period! Why is it that they don't have to be, just like Buckman's in Ottawa where everyone is on video surveillance, and have to sign with a drivers license in order to get paid.......... WHY? M

M We have two now..I've stayed out of the non ferrous metals game because you just have to deal with lets just say people I don't trust. I still get about 1 call a week from someone wondering if I towed their car-which I then have to explain I didn't as I don't tow anything unless I buy it-and I don't buy it unless they have a title..............

You're saying that "we" Streator have two recycling centers then, right? Are you being a junkyard also considered a recycling center too though? Without having to resort to look up "ferrous metals"...what is / are the differences? How could you tow any car without the owner knowing, unless it'd be a repo, or you were called upon law enforcement to tow it ? I have a model T / A Ford frame and front axle which I have tried to sell forever. I guess they need a clear title too, which I don't have...but I am ready to take that dang thing to the recycling center.........any suggestions JB? Thanks............ M

ferrous would be iron... Others would be copper aluminum etc...But you have centers in Ottawa,Peru,Pontiac,Seneca,and Verona(which I believe recently closed) that also buy all metals...
Personally I only deal in cars and trucks........
As for without the owner knowing craigslist and facebook have many people advertising they don't need a title...All I can tell you is myself,Rhodes,and Ligori's all expect titles..............

Check with the Friday night Scribs. Someone might be interested in those parts for making a rat rod. They might be able to put it to good use. Well I would, but who are they? Is this Randy's group? Please forward any contact info.........Otherwise it will get crushed, and end up crushed recycled ferrous............ thanks BD.................. M

I PM'd, but yeah, Randy is as good a guy to talk to as any. He is in with the VooDoo Kings, but knows and runs with the Friday Night Scribs as well. He could point you in the right direction. The frame on the T might be a little weak compared to the model A, but I bet someone can find a good use for it. Those guys are amazing what they do with some of their cars. We have some talented fabricators around town, and I am not talking about just the ones that can 'bend and twist a story'. Some of the stuff they do with the cars is amazing. Well it's almost sold to a guy in South Carolina. We are going to saw it into four pieces to ship this out to him, which yes amazing is right............ he plans on welding this back together. NOW.........back to the topic at hand......................Satches. They've painted the whole outside of the building, and yes made a handicapped ramp on the south side. As to WHEN this will be completed, and then open for business................who knows? BUT it is on the upswing....................... M
