We parted out a couple before we moved (houses are *so* close
together now) and learned one thing: Find a yard to haul the carcass
away FIRST. We had a 78 Westy which *no* local yard would take. Even
for $$.

Ended up calling the police for advice. Told me to push it to the
street (long driveway) and they tagged it as an abandoned vehicle.
Took two weeks for the yard to come and get it (the same yard that
refused in the first place).
