The obvious questions, like, what color is the block shredder? How fast does it go, and Is it portable?

I used to watch a 25,000 horse electric shredder in Midlothian, Texas eat cars all day long. Blocks, frames, whatever.

Notice that it is only engine BLOCKS, no bearings, pistons, or crankshafts!?
That's a lot of work to disassemble? But they all looked clean, maybe it recycles at an engine block casting plant? Plus they may be aluminum (easier to shred).
