Also, a quick squint at it, we store/handle the card payment, which is an absolute red line for us, due to the extra hoops we'd need to jump through.

Stripe definitely offers hosted payment pages, so you wouldn't have to worry about PCI compliance. I've built apps with it before where all you ever see on your end is a token that relates to the card data Stripe stores on their end, the card data never hits your servers. Don't know if the Zen Cart plugin supports that payment flow though
I'll have to look harder at that plugin.  Although the income from the shop had dwindled to very low values anyway, so not sure the effort needed would be worthwhile.....

Would there be any mileage in going bigger?

Say a unit and stripping scrapped cars for every last nut bolt and obscure components, as opposed to the anything that will sell in a week and bin the rest. And possibly restoring those that might otherwise be scrapped :-\

As I typed that, I can't help but wonder if it's not about ten years behind the curve :-\

And who is ever going to get the time to do that ;)

Not that I think you'd ever cover the unit costs. Not even close.
