Hawaii County Used Car Parts Business

A couple of questions:

1) I know car parts are expensive, but will they make enough money to cover the costs of this facility?
2) Is this structure only for premium abandoned vehicles?  What about mid range and budget?  Will they need a building when someone declares the premium program a success?
3) If the County tows and hauls and stores abandoned cars anyway, why do they also have a program which requires extensive paperwork so a homeowner can have a car towed off of their property?  Why can't we just pick up the phone and be extended the same courtousy as those who dump their cars on the side of the road?
4) what about private enterprise?  Tow companies and junk yards?
I believe these vehicles would be auctioned off in their entirety to new owners.  The County won't be in the business of selling used car parts.  It would be for all abandoned vehicles.  Premium is in the eye of the beholder.  Big Grin    

The difference between abandoning and junking a vehicle is with the latter you're legally relinquishing and destroying the title. 

Junk yards-Are there any of these in E. Hawaii?  A couple tire places I'm aware of.
