While I doubt many folks here are lining up to scrap their cars, there will likely be some. Is there any way to ensure that these traded cars get preserved for parts rather than just crushed?
Other thoughts on Allantes as clunkers? |
Q: What does the dealer do with my trade-in?
A: Gives it to a salvage operator. The engine, transmission and some other parts must be destroyed so they can't be reused. The idea is to cull fuel-thirsty, polluting drivetrains. Operators can resell other parts, however
