    I will be face with a very similar issue. Does anyone understand the legal necessities involved. Can you get money for the shell? I've run 2 scrap merchants who will only take it away from FOC - so no money to be made.

    Send in your log book as vehicle scrapped.
    Stop a pikey on there rounds they will give you a pound or two for the bits.
    Just don't let them see too much!lol
    But some are all right to deal with.
