Ideally wheels can be fixed, but not all. Usually welding and grinding costs $150 while wheel straightening cost $125. Welded wheels must undergo a follow up Eddy test.

Cut off the Catalytic Converter... Until recent years, this was one of the greatest secrets of the most profitable things to do, after you buy wrecked cars for sale. The catalytic converter contains platinum and other expensive metals that recycling centers love to get their hands on. Leaving the catalytic converter on the car is a huge mistake, because the average factory original catalytic converter is worth between $50.00 and $100.00, some of them even more!

Every junk yard is a little different with regard to pricing. And the amount you can expect to save will vary based on the type of item you're looking for. For example, car seats may carry higher savings than fuel pumps. As a general rule, you should expect to pay 40% to 50% less than you would for a comparable new unit. A brand new "straight-from-the-box" alternator might cost $200. At a junkyard, you should expect to pay $100 to $120 for the same brand and model.

buying scrap metal Should you buy new, used, or rebuilt? Should you buy locally or online? The same rules still apply. Common parts like starters, alternators, and water pumps, can be rebuilt and last a long time for less money than new ones. Sometimes junkyard parts come with a guarantee (of sorts) and a low price that makes them worthwhile, as long as you realize they were "used" by somebody, and are already partly worn-out. You get what you pay for -- sometimes -- and sometimes not. What's the suppliers reputation? What's the guarantee? Will they give it to you in writing, with a receipt?

Aside from the metal parts, tires, belts and rubber hoses can also be turned in. Even if you think that those old tires could not make it down another mile of road, you can bring them out to the recycling center and give them the opportunity to be transformed into something different.
