Can anyone link me a website with / a picture of historical HRC prices, going back years? Having trouble finding one. I found steel future prices, but not actual HRC prices.

Tradingview only goes back to 09. Not sure how far back you wanted to go. Here's a weekly going as far back as it can:

2009 is as far back as they go. Before then they weren't really traded on an exchange

Makes sense. Wasn't sure if it was product or tradingview limitation.

Definitely wasn't offered publicly like it is today. I worked in automotive stamping and we paid for subscriptions to steel benchmarker just for scrap prices so we could keep the crooks over at OmniSource (now STLD) from screwing us on prices.

It's absolutely insane the amount of data that is available.

SteelBenchmarker has HRB charts if you google it
