Well. I got my first car today. A 2000 cavalier with a bad engine. And I got it for free! I simply drove up and asked what they planned on doing with it. Pretty nice car shame there's no title. Oh well time to get the hammer! All I got now is a Mitsubishi mirage to haule it with lol

Congrats, I am still trying to get one. Good luck on the next one.

contact your yard and see if they will buy it without a title,
if they will call all the local tow companies and see what they charge to haul it in for you after you take the easy to pull items
if there are any pick and pull yards see if they are interested, they usually give a better price since they are going to part it out

I feel pretty good about this one. I picked this one up to maximize my return. I do it as a hobby so I don't add time. There something therapeutic about beating something with a hammer lol. I plan on completely dismantling the car and selling the good parts like windows and fenders and hood. And I will need to cut up the entire car as I will need it to fit in my trunk lol

Congratulations, you certainly can't beat the price
Believe it or not, many Cavaliers of that year can have a $200 converter! I actually get more of the good ones from Cavaliers/Sunfires than I do bad or mid-grade ones. Definitely chop that thing off if it's OEM. It will either be a Large Flow (round with a "fin" around the edge, marked with the word FLOW), or a Roundloaf (fairly plain-looking cylindrical cat). I can help you with ID once you remove it. Large Flow and Roundloaf converters BOTH have some VERY good numbers that are quite common.
They made a lot of these cars, and there are still a lot of them on the road, so you should do well selling parts from it as well.
