I agree with 1956.
When I was in high school, I opened a used computer sales/service store. I bought computers from an E-Waste facility a couple of hours away. I morphed into having my own E-Waste business. I never came up with as detailed of a business plan as you did. I didn't invest much, though.
For scrapping, I used my basement as a work area. I borrowed my father's Dodge Dakota until I had my own truck. I had nothing to lose. When I bought my box truck, I already knew that I wouldn't bellyflop.
Now, if there are $3500 fines for working on your own car... in a garage, I'd move. That is not a business-friendly town. There has to be somewhere better for you. Then, I'd start small. I refurbish computers. 1956 refurbished appliances. Find your niche. Out here, a used appliance company would do very well. The costs would be low too. All you need is an F-150 and a trailer, and a workshop. Take that money and expand it.
A wise man once told me this:
"The Best thing a business can do is grow. Slowly."
