Hey all,
I’m just wondering if any of you can recommend a good company who will pay decent bucks to pick up my '87 Maxima. It runs really good for its age but definitely not worth trying to chop as a beater since no one would want a 24 year old car…I woulda wanted to keep this car for life since it’s been in our family since brand-new, but I only have 1 parking space now at my condo (for my S14).
If you can recommend a place, please send any info or contacts…OR if any of you would wanna scoop it up lemme know, ha!
Thx!
Dru

scrap is worth absolutely nothing right now- i only got 30$ for a stripped s14 shell today (so you wont get more than 150$ prob)- either wait a few months till the market is better- or part it out or sell it as field car on kijiji- hey for 200$ ill buy it and field the crap out of it

damn stripped s14 shells must weight like 500 pounds or something lol because I got 350 for a 98 altima and it was around 3300 pounds iirc

was scrapping the altima recently? b/c then thats really good- it also depends if you find someone who buys salvage not scrap- they will part it out at a salvage yard, also guys who stockpile scrap till market is good will pay more but yeah ive gotten as much as 300$ for a whole car but right now only 100$ (shells do way almost nothing lol)

Hey sorry about that, I’ve been absent on the forum 'cause I’ve been working like a dog this whole week…
I got the car still. I’m in the Liberty Village area, King & Strachan area.
Yes the car’s got wheels considering it’s currently insured and in running order. I just don’t have the time of day to deal with selling it privately.

Not the actual, but looks identical to this:
I’m not expecting to get a ton of cash but really, only $30 is the going rate?

sell it privately, it may take half an hour of your time- but you should be able to get 400$- 30$ is for a scrap chassis picked up with flatbed

jeeta\_s- If you got 350$ they were probably salvage guys- not scrap guys. A fairly new common car like that will bring in good cash for panels, wheels and trans, etc.
