Hi Peter,
Let me clarify - I understand and have no problem with someone breaking a car
that has been totaled or is beyond hope for repair, but I had the opportunity
to closely examine many of the cars in his yard and found them to be in my mind
restorable - and when you're looking ar rare models like TR250s and MGCs (just
to mention a couple I looked at), seems like you should make every effort to
preserve them.
