This is absolutely wicked, and wrong. It's a shitty misuse of resources and is inefficient.

I'm glad I didn't see an SVO Mustang.

....yet!

That's why I called that little project "Crush Your Classic" The ONLY people being serviced there are the car buyers, and maybe, after a while, the car manufacturers. I drive by dealerships here in Texas and see back lots FULL of older cars. There are complaints from dealerships that while they have moved inventory, many have been stuck with many vehicles they haven't been paid for yet at $3500-$4500 a pop, and they can't get rid of.

The auto recycle industry is not being helped much, and those in the car restoration/repair industry aren't being helped at all. There's lots of usable parts that will never be made available to anyone to use or make some money off of.

Yet another knee-jerk government project.
