You are correct on the assessment of the bay area. Hayward had several at the west end
of Winton and Depot Rd. Specialty yards in Oakland and Hayward – British, MB, Porsche.
Emeryville – BMW.
Pick n Pull is owned by Schnitzner Steel. They have the huge car shredder in Oakland.
Plus others along the coast. So they control the yard and what is left over.

I used to go to the east bay , SF, parts places, and the prices were quite high, but yards were busy. Even 300sd cars were sometimes available. Out here in MD, no 300sd cars anymore, and prices are pretty much the same. Don't exactly know what their business models are, but cars out here stay for a long time, not so in the SF bay area. Rarely were cars scrapped there until they had been stripped.
