Getting rid of a donor.....
how can i get rid of my donor car shell?
i would preferably like some money for it
could i cut it up and sell it to the scrap metal merchants or must i sell it to a scrappy?
if so can you recomend any scrappys in the midlands that would pay me for a nice sierra estate shell?
cheers
Matt

I put mine on a friends trailer and took it to the crusher (not a breaker), it was complete with bonnet boot and doors and i got about £45 for it
Hope this helps

Depending on how stripped your Sierra is you might get nothing for it at a scrappie. I stripped mine of all its suspension, gearbox, engine, the usual
donor bits etc and I had to pay them to take it away as they said there was nothing left on it for them! It only cost me a tenner for their fuel for
the roundtrip though.

beat the cr%p out off it with a digger.
Then bury it, works for me

use the search facility here as there are lots of previous threads on here. I had mine taken away for free for the local fire brigade to practice on
even though it was just a shell with no numbers

Look in your local paper.
I've found half a dozen that gaurantee £40 no matter what the condition. I suspect they are just interested in the shell for the scrap steel.
The local breakers to me take anything over 10 years old straight to be crushed.
