Tips For Selling Your Old Junk Car

A good advice to anyone who's thinking of collecting classic cars: do not buy everything that's more than 20 years old. Not everything that is old is classic. A family Corolla will always be a cheap car, unless it is a first-generation one.

Therefore, make sure you get the title of the owner.
