How did we come up with our business name? After not agreeing on any names, one day we were traveling in the car and I just blurted out "Dino Wheels"! Of course Scott loved it because he loves dinosaurs. We talked for hours about the future of Dino Wheels and the design concepts. It was time to roll with it and begin the business setup.
The Big Tex trailer was a great investment. We can haul in 3-4 vehicles at a time with this baby. It is a great way to give "Dino Wheels" a productive start.
We were delighted to support our niece as she participated in her first demo derby by providing a car for the event. Although she didn't clinch the victory, her performance was commendable. Most importantly, she thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It's heartwarming to witness her enthusiasm and determination in such a unique and exciting venture. We look forward to cheering her on in future endeavors and are proud to be a part of her memorable journey.
Embarking on a journey into the past, we sometime find ourselves captivated by the allure of vintage cars.
Discovering hidden treasures in one of the scrap cars turned out to be an exhilarating experience for Scott, a man well into his 40s but who, in that moment, was like a kid in a candy store. The excitement gleamed in his eyes as he unearthed unexpected goodies, each item triggering a wave of nostalgia or sparking curiosity. Scott's enthusiasm transcended age, proving that the thrill of unexpected discoveries knows no bounds. The scrap car became a playground of memories and curiosities, where Scott, with the spirit of a child, reveled in the joy of finding unexpected gems amidst the discarded.
With official status attained, our truck stands as a symbol of readiness and industrious potential, poised to embark on the essential business. Its mechanical heartbeat, now synchronized with the rhythm of industry, is ready to echo through the scrap yards and salvage arenas. This official recognition marks the beginning of a journey characterized by hard work, resilience, and the intrinsic value found in repurposing discarded vehicles.
Arriving at the yard, the sight is nothing short of a rim enthusiast's paradise – rims galore! Our truck with a diverse array of wheels, showcases a spectrum of styles and sizes, each telling a story of journeys long past.
It was a beautifully stacked, Tetris style, beauty of a load. Once chained down it was time to get on the road to take these beauties in to be recycled and bring them to life in a new way. Sending them on to be reincarnated. What will they become in their next life? It is something we often ponder.
