I've sent about 18-20 Ford Focus SVT's to the scrap heap over the last 8-9 years. They were all rusted out, neglected, beyond poor condition basket cases. I still hear a lot of crying and people trying to personally insult me on the Facebook groups for cutting up a rare car. You know, the same people who ask for a good shop to change their oil and air filter. Mostly those people.
By selling parts across the country, I've helped keep a lot of good example SVT's on the road and line my pocket in the process. Ford has all but discontinued every part for them at this point. I have no regerts.
