anyone know about junkyard sales?!!?! - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

S13Leprechaun · 10-19-2007, 01:55 AM

i have this like 85 mazda truck thats running, in like 5/10 condition all around, and was wondering how much you think i can get for it at a junkyard? you can sell whole cars to junkyards right? anyone got an idea? i need cash and it just sits so that sounds good!

azndoc · 10-19-2007, 02:15 AM

Here's an idea.

Grab the phone book and call around to your local junkyards.

I'm sure they'll be able to give you a more accurate answer than we can.

Ricks15 · 10-19-2007, 02:17 AM

Maybe 300-400 bucks if you're lucky

S13Leprechaun · 10-19-2007, 02:19 AM

Well shit.

Didn't know you wanted an answer right the fuck now.

Duh of course I wouldn't expect you to call them right now.

S13Leprechaun · 10-19-2007, 02:31 AM

haha.. wow.. its just chat.. just seeing what people think.. anyway.

azndoc · 10-19-2007, 02:34 AM

I think it's 1:34am and I'm going to bed.

S13Leprechaun · 10-19-2007, 02:37 AM

good idea... i proly should too.

Dirty Habit · 10-19-2007, 06:54 AM

This thread is like one of those dates where you wake up in the morning and ask: "what the hell have I done??."

Except leprechaun is content to sleep for awhile longer.

89dc240 · 10-19-2007, 07:31 AM

Don't know where you're at, but if you drive it to them you might get like $200. Gianna's in Philly will do that, but if they have to come pick it up, it's more like $50.

Farzam · 10-19-2007, 09:01 AM

You'd get more money selling on craigslist.

Suk02Si · 10-19-2007, 10:06 AM

A buddy of mine sold a running 89 coupe for $75 to the 'yard; it had some body damage. So I'm willing to bet they'll offer you $76.

pluyee · 10-19-2007, 10:20 AM

prolly 150 for a heavy truck

jackjack · 10-19-2007, 11:12 AM

not sure about a truck. but in chicago you'll get $100 as long as it has motor/tranny/radiator. you can take ANYTHING else. running or not, dosent matter.

100 for seats from a junkyard? thats fuckin nuts, they better be leather.

at our local junkyard seats are $20 each no matter what, my buddy got power heated leather seats for his s10 for 40 bucks, mint condition.

k's_silvia2.0 · 10-19-2007, 11:38 AM

Usually the junkyards try to rip you off beware.

ZOMG_S14 · 10-19-2007, 12:45 PM

i sold a 1995 honda to a junk yard for 235 here in cali. soo..... probably 100bucks?

BustedS13 · 10-19-2007, 01:10 PM

most junkyards will take it off your hands for free, but don't expect to get paid much.

they wouldnt go lower that that and these were the cleanest s14 seats ive seen almost and its a matching pair... other than that i just had a driver seat, and an s13 seat.... my friend would alwyas complain about 'amost flying out of the car' everytime we get sideways... lol.. s14s are way better and this was worth.... thats a good ass deal you got tho man.. sweet!

gotta240 · 10-21-2007, 09:13 PM

What yard is the 14 at??

Do you need the seat belt clip from the seats? Can i buy them off you?(just the buckle that comes with the seats)

S13Leprechaun · 10-21-2007, 09:15 PM

naw i used then cause theyre nice red! my s13 one were faded a f***... dunno what its called but i know its the ones past nirvana up the hill.

gotta240 · 10-21-2007, 09:20 PM

So are the s13 and s14 buckles the same? IF so, wanna let the 13 ones go?

S13Leprechaun · 10-21-2007, 09:23 PM

i only have one.. i had only one seat in my car... so ihave one, driver side one... you want that? pm me.

gotta240 · 10-21-2007, 09:27 PM

ding ding ding. if it runs, people on craigslist will give you money for it. I sold one of my dads beatup work vans for like $800. He was about to tell a junk to come get it because it just sat behind the office being useless, but craigslist to the rescue, and I took myself a nice cut hahaha.

gotta240 · 10-21-2007, 09:33 PM

Toyotas sell for that all day...not sure about mazdas though....they are kinda hard to get rid of... Worth a shot though!

Does it run and drive? Do you have the title?

S13Leprechaun · 10-21-2007, 09:36 PM

yes to all... runs, but you gotta jump start it... needs starter.. drives fine.. looks brown.. lol.

gotta240 · 10-21-2007, 09:41 PM

lol. I may be able to use a "junk truck" for random runs/etc...

Pm me a price (hopefully not much more than you think a junk yard will give ya!!) and i'll see if i can come up with some $.
