Some surprise findings in the scrapyard I was in today, so took a few snaps and thought I'd post them up;

Basically complete and mint (apart from having another car plonked on its roof) 90's Concerto (or is it a Ballade, I forget...)

80's Accord

Fourth Gen Civic

Wasn't expecting this!
Facelift '95 UKDM 2.3 Auto

Was in really, really good nick aside from the rear arches.

What's the rules around taken parts off these cars?
I imagine you find some good gems in there? Wouldn't mind visiting one myself, though I'd probably leave with a trailers worth of parts I think would be useful...

They vary yard to yard. This is still one where you can take parts off yourself.
And yep that is dangerous for the bank balance and storage space

Hmmmm...

May have to see if there is any local to me. To quench my curiosity

A lot of the ones I visit are still operating the remove the parts yourself policy...which I think is great

@4th Gen Doug

Do you need any bits off the h23? Like the engine, so you can let that poor old 623 live!

Best be quick - I don't reckon they'll hang on to it long.

love it when someone spots interesting finds like these in scrapyards

my local one/s are good for occasional gems, best one (but also the worst) was about 2 years ago a 4g from europe somewhere turned up with a TV in it

... so obviosuly i jumped at the chance of trying to get it but the scrappy owner was a complete gentleman's sausage and insist the lude was untouched for months - then it disappeared one day
