just outside of nottingham! the sprint and tr7 have been here since i can remember (started feb this year) n they're looking a bit rough the toledo came in the other week and doesnt seem to have anything taken off it yet.. doesnt look too bad (as scrap motors go ;D) also it aint stacked whereas the tr7 is on top of another car and the sprints got a mitsi lancer on top of it!

Hi there,.. this list is great, thanks,.. Old Datsuns are a particular fave for me,.. so if any come in give us a shout, I'm sure we can find homes for them. Or at least rob them of their component parts

Podders is the most expensive scrappy in Nottingham and the guy who runs it is a right funny , us locals won't use the place because of this. my storage is only about 10 minutes down the road. better prices and more reasonable service can be had at Lenton or just down the A52 at Albert Looms (who have a website listing their current stock)

yeah i know what u mean hes a bit like that, i just thought id advertise the cars i think might be worth something to somebody rather than them being treated like any old scrapper (i.e. early 90's escorts etc.)... these cars need saving!!
