    1976 Honda accord

    Totally new to vehicle recycling, just wondered if anyone here can give me a guesstimate value of the scrap metal of a 1976 Honda accord hatchback? Is it worth it to try and chop it up and sell it as scrap metal or just sell it to one of these junk car buyers?

    Also a 1974 dodge vista.



    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Neither run and haven't run in 20 years.

    Thank you,

    James in Los Angeles

    You need to make a intro thread

    But i would highly suggest selling them for more than scrap value, not many 70's hondas around, i would certainly by one if it was near me.
    Definitely a collector/ user out there looking for a small car that gets good mileage, and is not the same thing that everyone else has on the road.

    The accord looks to be at least 2000lbs and the dodge around 4000lbs

    That accord is worth WAY more than scrap value, running or not.

    I would check some Honda forums and see whats what.
    I'm sure someone would want the glass and some other parts even if the body is rusted.

    I grew up in Cleveland and had one of the only Honda dealers around. RICK CASE HONDA. sold bikes only then started selling some cars in the 70's. Those where some ugly cars.LOL
    The place is still there now selling cars only. Rick Case Honda and Rick Case Hyudai
