You are going to need a lot more space than that Harry l.o.l. Some good crunching so far. The Lincoln must be the owners car too good a shape to be in the junk yard.

You need a larger salvage yard- your current one is much too small to require a beast this size. ;)

What brand is it? Because now I want to find one!

Hey swifty,
it's the caterpillar brand, they also had a grader and the plow. these were pretty common in most walmarts in canada. up until they clearanced them, that is. it's mostly diecast, only 10% plastic, so it's heavy brute. i could see if there are anymore around, but my fear is that the shipping cost to you from canada would be brutal.

Shipping costs would definitely be brutal, but I might be able to find one at a Walmart here in the States. What brand of diecast- Ertl?

That's really cool- thanks for the packaging pic! Something tells me this may be 1/87 though and too small for my yard. :(
