Amazing photos from Kinshasa's scrap car-parts megamarket

There is plenty of profit to be made from used car parts. If you wander down Recycle Road in Rancho Cordova (near Sacramento) you’ll see one thriving dismantler after another. The problem is having economical shipping to get the parts to the people willing to pay for them. I think that if the DRC government brought some subsidized internet and China-style subsidized post to the area it could turn into a tidy profit center.
