    scrap yard to get the most money for shell

    So I'm parting out a pretty beat up (body wise) 1991. Was wondering if anyone had any suggestions to get the most for the shell + whatever I dont end up selling.

    Its my sisters old car, sitting at my parents house and they want it gone by the middle of april at the latest.

    I called Brandy Brow in Plaistow NH, they would come pick up the shell, but I believe it needs to be rolling, so I was looking for a scrap place that would take it sans wheels. I want to keep the front subframe for my e30.

    thanks!

    Cut it up and load the pieces in a truck, take it to a scrap metal place. We got almost $250 for an E30 mixed with a ford festiva.

      I don't have the time to cut it up and load it into pieces, I'd prefer to just put it on my trailer and drop the damn thing off somewhere haha

        Just call around, my buddy found a place to take his with no suspension. If you can make it roll it's way easier to get rid of.

            If you need it to roll just get three furniture dollies at harbor freight ($7 per, with coupon). One each for under the front rockers and one under the spare tire well. BTDT

              From experience, this works very well. When I did it, the shell was so empty, we were able to roll it out on dollies, then lift it onto the flat bed. Even got my dollies back.
