Default What to do with shell of car??

I have a shell left, no suspension, no rear and no interior. Some body panels misc parts are left. Whats the best way to get rid of it? Will a scrap yard come get it for free? Should I cut it in half, or try and sell it for a race shell (but has some damage but easy fix for the right guy)? Need opinions from guys that have parted out a car. Thanks!

I would try to sell it but if no one wants it, take it to the scrap yard

I took mine to the scrap yard. I found plenty of people wanting bare rollers for race car projects, but nobody wanted one with no suspension.

And the part that sucks is the damn title came back clean after I thought it was going to be salvaged (part of why I parted it out). Thanks for the tips guys, keep em coming!

I would find out how much you could get from a scrap yard then put in on racingjunk for $100 more

Throw it on the classifieds for the hell of it. If it doesn't sell then just scrap it.
