I'm in Toronto. I've heard of a place where they give you $500 if the
car can drive in their properties.

I'm in Mass, and they will pay that for any <1997 (No OBDII) car that can
drive 100 ft forwards and reverse (Has to be registered)

What was the car again?

If you weren't in Toronto I'd buy it and burn it up delivering newspapers.
Perfect car for that.

Hmmmmm...I'm always looking for generic Toyota parts: relays, screws, etc
etc. If you send it to the wrecker, let me know and I'll toss you a few
$$$ for some stuff...But no Euros!!!  ;)

In Cal., they will give you $500 for old cars. It is to get them off the
road, so that they foul up the air. The cars has to be able to go about
150 m.

Same here. Has to be able to go 100 ft in each direction, and have a
current registration.

Whatever Calif does, Mass soon follows...

That's because of the pollution levels in the Eastern part of the state.
Boston was getting smoggy, so when Calif came up with the CARB regs, Mass
soon adopted them.

At first it was like when emission controls were first introduced to the
automobile engine. Engineers had a hell of a time trying to keep up the HP
output with every new reg that came along. Cars sold in Mass were rated
about 15HP under VT and CT versions. So, we bought 'our' (my first wife
and my) last Corolla in CT before they went '50 state emissions'.

Yes there is, but I heard it is up on Ellesnere Island and  the car can not
be more than three years old   ;)
