Default Entire wrecking yard sold - country Vic

Sold 10 Dec. I only heard about it yesterday. I would have gone there just for a look at the cars had I known about it earlier.

Maybe someone on this forum can find pics of the cars somewhere?

How much would each car be worth in scrap value?

Wow, some intersting views here. Perhaps not many are keepin or restoring anything at all now? As if you were, you would now just how many bits of trim and mechanical bits are left there. Much of it absolutely unobtainable now, except for these older collections. I have purchased many many items from Talbot wreckers and it will be sad if it all goes.
