Apparently, the owner of this huge scrapyard died recently and the stuff is being sold off dirt cheap - one guy bought three Hummers for three thousand pounds (the original military ones go for around twenty-five thousand)!
The sad thing is, most of the vehicles have now been crushed! Why? Because the estate's executors simply wanted rid and couldn't be bothered to advertise or ask around.
Into the crusher went, according to our friend, Jeeps, Rios, Mutts, Blazers and other similar, WORKING US military vehicles!
Still, myself and the other half are going down there in a couple of weeks, hopefully, to see what we can scavenge. It's a shame that the vehicles are mostly gone, I'd have loved to give 'em five hundred quid and take away a two-and-a-half-ton truck!
Would anybody be interested in knowing the address? No Minor stuff, but there might be some excellent military vehicle spares going cheap for cash . . . .
I still want to go along and see for myself.
