Car Crushing Bill

[William]

Hardly a new topic. Those who read Hot Rod magazine in the mid-90s will remember the yellow '67 "Crusher Camaro" so named because they bought it from the person who brought it to the Unocal recycling center. In those days they paid $600 for any running car that had live registration to earn emissions credits. Having shopped the So Cal junkyards before and after I can tell you the supply of '60s cars dried up instantly when they implemented this program. Other states have offered voluntary buy-backs also. Most of the potential damage has been done.
