Southern Hemisphere's largest wrecking yard is for sale

The famous Cooma (N.S.W.) based car wreckers, is up for sale. I have never had reason to visit there, but have driven past a few times. The yard seems to have a selection of vehicles from U.K, USA, Australia and many other places, an interesting story.

Over the years, one hears many tales of how that elusive part was eventually tracked down to this seller, and I believe that he has had quite a trade with overseas enthusiast too.

I bet it'd be interesting to have a root around the furthest corners of that place, I miss visiting old-school scrapyards Smile
