Most club members already have loads of cars, its a shame but thats the reality of old cars these days & the value of scrap.
Your car Terry, no one should hold anything against you for cubing it, you've offered her for scrap value & no takers, so its gotta go.
I could do with the plastic bit that holds the rad in place on the front slam panel (i think thats what its called) if you were thinking of taking a few bits off before she departs for china?
If not, not worries, i'm sure another one will come along. Golden beer tokens available.

Mark.
Yes I'm afraid 9am is the deadline,otherwise it will be out of tax.And if I'm driving it into the scrappers,I'm doing it legally. [c90cassette has'nt contacted me yet]
btw, .........I've taken a ride around to three local scrappies today,two were breakers [and sellers of "used parts] ....one will cube it before Monday .....I at least thought it would be wothwhile for "bits" .....but NO ......guess which one offered me the most money for it.
Dont let the 2CV fool you,I'm not a hippy,I like violence

I s'pose I'll be a rotten b*st*rd when its gone.
Scrapping a good car
Have you been on the falling down water again Tim?
Terry: you can't be a rotten bastard if you scrap it mate. At least you tried to find a home for it and you can't win 'em all. People have had their chance to come and get it, couldn't for whatever reason (genuine ones I'm sure) and that's the end of it.
Send it to China, it's only a pile of metal at the end of the day.
