What to expect when sping a car? Reply #15 – February 07, 2011, 08:09:35 PM It would have been nice to get more, but I am happy with the amount that I got considering I didn't have to do anything to get it. Quote Selected

What to expect when sping a car? Reply #17 – February 07, 2011, 09:06:30 PM Around here, if you can drive it in, you get 200-300, if they have to come get it, you get like 150ish. That's at the junk yards. For the recycler to take it, it has to have no gas tank, and no fluids. Some of the recyclers only take them cut in quarters with no glass. That's too much work, lol.

Either that, or I'm too cooch to **** with it in the cold.Actually, that car took everything (which is considerable) that I threw at it and wanted more. It's rusty, crusty, bent, beat, and butt ugly now, but I still have respect for it. I just wish I'd had the means to finish what I started with it back in 2006. Ahh well, there's a few parts of it on, in, under, or in a box to go on the Sport...and I have a lot of pics of it.Sometimes you gotta walk away from something, and make a new start. Soon as it warms up, the shell will be going to Tbird heaven. RIP. Quote Selected

What to expect when sping a car? Reply #22 – February 10, 2011, 11:43:18 AM yea umm you should definitely take it to the s yard yourself. Before you do remove the radiator, condenser, cat and aluminum rims if you have them as they are worth decent cash. ****, cars are going for $200/T here. You can usually expect to get at least $300 a car nowadays if you do it right. Quote Selected
