I know farrows gave money for cars delivered very recently.
Not far from York so maybe worth a try.

You got everything off, fuel sender off the tank, petrol 1 way valve again off the tank, horn from from behind lower front grill, fuse box with all the relays just a couple of things often overlooked.

Cheers fov, will give them a try

And no rich, not got everything off yet :p just thought I'd better play it safe & find out a rough turn around time from calling a scrapper to them taking it away, to avoid having an unsightly shell sat on it's arse on the drive for days

Missed the post yesterday & today btw matey, yellow vinyl will be in post tomorra and with you on Thursday

Chop it up with a grinder (big one) and take to the local recyling place in parts


The roof is useful steel plate for brakets etc.

ell I've had the sierra sat on the drive since march this year & successfully ignored complaints from domestic management til recently..

Gonna get it stripped this wknd & hold onto it a day or two just to make sure I've got everything I need. Working away next week so will ring scrappers in advance to let them know when it's going to be available for collection and get rid sharpish..
