problem down here is lack of scrapyards.
there used to be loads where you could wander round and help yourself to the parts
now there is only 1 that i know of, the rest dismantle them themselves and charge you a fortune for what you want

hasnt there been some kind of change in the rules about keepign scrap cars these days?

i used to love the scrappy.. but they always seem to be "cubing" up the cars at a quicker rate these days
