per the news, some scrap dealers say they won't accept them, certainly won't PAY for them.....
but junk yard owners aren't all that smart either. the corporate owned, idiot managed ones put perfectly good collectibles out in the yard to be torn apart.
SOME yards have a section where those older collectibles are sold as whole cars, but many don't. I tried to get one yard to sell me the 2 early 70's Plymount Dusters they had just got in, both with fine bodies, small v8 engines, auto trans. I would have paid $4000 for the pair, but the gal running the place said company policy is to not sell whole cars...she wouldn't even call corporate and ask for me...
Do you think that might have something to do with titles and VIN's and registrations, or whatever other DMV crap that goes along with a junk yard acquiring motor vehicles? I'm asking; I dunno.
