what do you think should be done? many cars just get scrapped with good parts still on them. he is giving some people the chance to buy parts they need at a fair price, we all cant afford to buy new parts. the death of one car means life to many more

i cannot remember which car it came from, i think it was the white 4 door he had. as for the price, it was a little on the high side, but it was running when removed (which didnt matter as i rebuilt it within hours) it was bought for £100, which is high but i was desperate for an engine,

Hi There, I have also dealt with Maltby on ebay he is a pleasant guy, and he does offer all parts of the car including the stripped shell, as he has a simpathy for the whole car, and why should he not make some money from the supply, he will even sell you the complete car if you ask before he starts to strip it. As i say i have only had positive feed for him

There is a black 2 door in a scrap yard in Nottingham, D&D scrap yard behind the Showcase cinema, telephone 01159 789 516 They want to sell the car complete but it is a Major project, it is a welders dream as it needs so much, It has many good usable parts Don't know the age/year. However it would be good to see her going back on the road, just call them or you can meet one of the partners at the Ruddington meet in Feb as he told us he will be there to talk about it, when we went to look at her last week
