It’s a sad situation. The truth of the matter is that your car has finally died and it’s no longer worth the money to keep having it fixed. That means you will need to start looking for another car to purchase. You can go the new car route or the used car route. Either way, your money will be better spent than those constant and costly trips to the mechanic shop. That being stated, your old used car still has value. In essence, it’s worth money even if it no longer drives. Did you know that you could sell it to a used auto parts Cape Cod salvage yard that will tear down your vehicle for the used auto parts and the scrap metal? 

How Much Money Can You Get?

The question that you may be asking yourself at this point is how much money can you get for your used auto parts and scrap metal? The answer depends on a few factors. First and foremost, it depends on the year, make, and model of the vehicle. If you own an old scrap automobile that’s no longer worth repairing the used auto parts still have value. Used auto parts such as the battery, radio, and tires can all be re-sold. However, the value of those parts depends on the type of car you’re selling. For example, the parts of a luxury car like a BMW or Mercedes may be worth more money than the same parts of a Dodge or Ford.
