I have an old rusted 70's oldsmobile just sitting taking up space, hasnt run in many years, doors wont open etc...about how much could you sell it for scrap if its even worth it?

 

depends on the market most likely around 25 dollars and they'll just take it to the car crusher anyways

 

you could sell it on ebay as a parts car if anybody wants or needs things off of it.

 

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Don't scrap it. Try ebay, specialinterest, and craigslist to see if you can sell it to someone who wants to restor the thing ESPECIALLY if it is a 2door Cutlass. If not sell it for parts, you can easily get $1,500 for the front clip as long as its in good condition, if ur glass is good that's another big $$ maker but plz plz plz don't crush it.

 

I'll have to take pics and try and get it up on craigslist try that for a bit, thanks for the advice.

 

You'd get the most money out of it if you ebay the parts.

People give my cousin cars at the salvage yard and he'll make 200-2500 from the parts.

 

Doubt I can get that much after I really investigated it, i have 8 pics here its pretty bad, if you want to see they are here.

wow...euh...$600 seems kinda high for a 1960 something v8 lawn ornament...

 

Good luck with craigslist. Sold my 1971 Monte Carlo on it and met my price. Yea the car is in rough shape. The stuff I see u can def sell are the doors, engne and tranny, back taillights n trim, side trim, and def the glass which is where u can get the most money from. Too bad its a 4door, a 2door in that shape I bet u still will be able to sell it. F85s are very underappreciated, done right and that would be a nice cruiser. Best of Luck.

 

you should make a huge planter out of that

that would be awesome

 

Thanks for the tips, I would like to sell the pieces if I had the know how to properly take things apart...I guess since its in such bad shape that would be the perfect time to learn because as you can see if you screw up there is no need to get mad lol. I suppose 600 is high and I agree, I don't expect that it will sell for that, hoping 500. I guess you gotta keep in mind things are worth what people are willing to pay, miricles can happen lol. Maybe if I don;t sell this car I could learn off it and that would be the true mony gain for me in the long run.

 

sell it to some in europe they love four doors unlike ppl here who like coupes

 

an update for anyone interested, I actually got my price met, sold for 600 at this time, working out arrangements if all goes through i'll have some mod money for my tC

 

congrats man!!! glad they're meeting ur price. love craigslist, free advertising as long as u need it is awesome. keep us updated.
