I will tell you i do this for a living and never by from people i buy strictly from auctions and pay more than most but i make good money doing it.I will list the last 5 i bought and the profit i made.
2002 ford taurus 425 2 honeycombs 55 or so each
2002 dodge intrepid 475 2 wire 45-50 each
1995 jeep cherokee 355 after market converter 7
2001 ford taurus 475 honey combs 55 or so each
1993 buick lesabre 355 gm 108 i think
2000 dodge durange 425 chrysler 80 or so i think.
2001 chevy impala 384 empty converter
Plus the batteries and aluminum wheels and alts.
I made around $900 that week.

So you figure curb weight and converters then battery and other non-ferrous is profit?
