Lol sorry communication is flawed for humans isnt it?

My point exactly the way you strip cars you might as well have a Car yard

But seriously it will be a shame to lose the last of our beloved dattos if these prices keep rising.

Imagine one day saying... or you granson saying when they are 300 years old thanks to bi0-engineering

Yes it's a real dilemma; even here in Oz. My local towing yard gets the occasional datsun and I had an arrangement with them where I got to go in a pick bits and pieces off them. I even bought a complete running 1200 ute off them last year for $900. They had a 1200 sedan on the back of their tow truck a month ago and when I called in they just said sorry; it's going straight to scrap. It even had the mint grille i've been chasing for months.
It's a sad day when the tow guys turn down a quick $50 [for the grille] because they can't wait 5 minutes for me to remove it.

Be prepared gentlemen there will be another whopping 25% bump again in August/September. Now thats the third rise in less than 9 months. Steel will be worth 75% more than it was at the beginning of the year.

We now ship all of our steel scrap to steel collectors who pay up BIG for just a small shipping container full.

And ordering 120 tonnes of steel a month is hitting us really hard on the books when the price hikes hit.
