poor quality hubcaps went long ago, they don't hold enough water for my dog, he has a bowl that holds about 5 litres that it seems we are filling every second day

I did very nicely yeah!! I had no other option to get rid of this (very-much-in-the-way) junk, SIMS is a 15 min drive from mine.

Cha-ching

scrap metal must be up again i know years ago if i had a clean up i'd get paid then it wasn't worth anything for ages

I did have a couple of very heavy, very bent old Morris radiators (don’t ask how I wound up with them…) in there on this run and they alone were worth half the haul. But yeah I think even though ore prices have dipped, scrap steel is still ok.

I’ve also read that some scrappers don’t pay so well, SIMs had the best reviews for price when I did the whip around my locals online.

Hi Joe. Just spent a few hours reading through Leroy's journey, as I saw the recent posts and realised I had not followed this build through. What a great story it was. You have a gift with words that made it a real pleasure to read. Lot's of great engine and technical info in there too, and of course, the usual rust experiences. And importantly, a band of clever forum dudes helping out on the way. Thanks so much for sharing it with us.
