Car is now gone, Kirby's is under new ownership and all the old cars have been crushed.
Such a shame, that was about 30 old cars gone for good.

Re: Not a scrap yard, abandoned in a yard
Drove down Progress Road at the weekend and the car has gone, hope it's gone to a good home, but I very much doubt it.

Re: Not a scrap yard, abandoned in a yard
We saw this today as we drove down Progress Road. Its been there for a few years, I think they used to drive about in it as we used to see it parked out the front of the boat repair place where it now sits out the back.

Re: Traveller in Kirby's Car Breakers, Rochford.
Thanks for letting us know, I'm just about to start the restoration of a Traveller and I'm sure to need some bits. I'll have to check it out next week.
