Selling Scrap Cars For Cash

The problem at hand is that who would buy a car that doesn't run? Of course you may be able to find a car enthusiast willing to pay you some money to have possession of the car and then work upon it. But the chances of this are very slim. This is where car salvage companies step in to provide you with a very beneficial service.

That is the main reason why I think people bought them and kept them to this day. The other small percentage of them kept the cars because they knew they would be worth serious cash flow today. Whoever thought of that is right and these cars are expensive today if you see them. Just a 60s car like a thunderbird is worth $20,000. It is crazy when you are at a car show and you see someone write a check for $40,000.

Let me try to explain various types of car auctions available to you. There are many different types of car auctions out there: Seized car auctions, police car auctions, government car auctions and used car auctions. I recommend you government car auctions, I buy cars only there. These auctions can be a great source for finding used cars at very cheap prices, starting from as little as $100. If you are interested, you can read an article(see link at the end of this article). If you are not sure how to find these car auctions you should try your local yellow pages or white pages and then the internet.

A car that is younger than three years old and that has less than fifty thousand kilometres on the clock are probably the best to buy. Cars with higher mileage may have been used for business reasons and could have been driven hard. The company owns these cars and it is likely that the drivers were not too careful when driving the cars.

Part of the problem is that the car is basically no longer worth anything. And that's one of those funny things about buying junk cars; the person selling it, tries to build value in it, even though it's going straight to the scrap yard. When the car gets purchased for scrap, it's by the pound a certain amount... so it doesn't matter if the "interior's in great shape" or you "just put new brake pads on it," that's all VERY irrelevant!
