So I've only done a few cars, mostly because I can't buy them at a price that makes sense in my world. My math says that if I buy a 3300 pound car that I can sell for 200/ton, I will I will get $330 for it if i sell it whole. I have the time and expense of taking items off the car to maximize profits and I have towing expenses. Battery 9 bucks, starter and alternator 6 bucks each, cat varies, small amount of wiring at 90 cents per pound.

People are hanging up on me when I look up the curb weight and offer $150-200 for a car. What am I doing wrong, or is it just that you only get a small percentage of folks actually willing to sell a car for scrap price?



Thanks guys!
