Scrap yard localish to me has some older stuff, is there anything that is "Gold Dust " nowdays that I should be on the look out for? As an example they have an early Saab Turbo, with them funky looking alloys, an old Merc (very rusty) various really rusty avenger, hunter, anglia etc, all beyond repair but still relatively complete. Lots of 80s type motors aswell. Was thinking of going on a treasure hunt there one day and raiding all the good stuff.

So then, where is this scrap yard then...........? You just wont let it lie! Essex ;D Went there Sunday, took a few pics which as soon as I can sneak them on works P.C. I'll post them.. Think someone has been there robbing alot of stuff from the oldies this week. Battered rusty old cars included, 2 old Mercs(front wings missing off one, so must be unavailable/dear), Big Citroen estate, Anglia van(just about the outline of it in rust!), early RX7,924 Porkers, Lancia estate twin cam thingy, Volvos (really clean GLT estate BURIED under 2 other cars, criminal!) few others. Loads of late 80s/early 90s stuff that are worthless at the moment.
