They are not being scrapped
They are not being parted out
They are not being sold
Bush stadium is filled with them.
discuss,
Why do they just sit? why not recycle, etc
It’s a government program do you really expEct more??
Looks like white, red, black, and blue are the most common colors of the 90s
Actually, they are being scrapped and parted out (minus the engines of course, since those had to be destroyed as part of the program).
The stadium is being rented out to junk yards as a place to store the extra cars.
theres been thousands of cars run through this program, thats just a few of them
a small fortune could be made by sneaking in there at night and hunting out parts.
They were sold to junkyards, parted out, and I believe they had to be crushed by a certain date. I bought my Jeep cheap because someone wrecked the side against a guardrail, and fixed it using an identical clunker as a donor for color-matched panels. I probably have parts from about 20 more clunkers on that thing.
destroy perfectly working cars! create more garbage!
great idea!
LOL
Lots of them wind up in junk yards. The yards around here with high turn over rate have lots of them. The place I go to mark all of them with "C4C
Word on the street is that the program was originally conceptualized by the Chinese embassy and proposed to the US as they were at one point not taking dollars to pay back our debt when the currency was sinking. They valued the steel as a commodity and thus took that in trade. However this is hearsay.
And doesn’t make much sense if they are buying our T bills.
German organized crime groups buys them up in Germany and sell them to people in Africa LOL
