Naturally, a chemical solution (pun not directly intended...but I'll take it anyway) becomes apparent. If the ultimate motivation of the car siezures is to sell them and keep the money, what would happen if somebody acquired a few ounces or gallons of PCB's (poly-chlorinated biphenyls; common in 20+year-old (non-electrolytic) capacitors), and sprayed them (only a very tiny amount per car should be necessary, maybe 1 milliliter or so?) into those siezed cars though a broken window (or injected through door seals). Naturally, it would be important to anonymously call the local newspaper or TV stations and report on what had ccurred, possibly the EPA as well. That car would suddenly change from a $10,000 asset into possibly a $100,000 liability for the agency which siezed them..
Anti pollution laws do not apply to government or to government officials acting in the course of their duties. If the government spreads deadly pollutants everywhere, then the government is innocent, but all private businesses that somehow facilitated the action of the government, perhaps by supplying it with equipment, or by allowing it to confiscate the land which it polluted, or by having the pollution spread upon their property, are guilty. --digsig James A.
