[Peugeot-L] Re: Part or Sell?
At the most you would get a few hundred bucks for what we call here
in Calgary a "golfball" car, ie: hail dents on ever visible surface
(my brother had one). Therefore I would think that it is a parts
car however, since body panels can't be sold only mechanical,
interior and electrical parts are saleable, personally, I don't know
if it is worth it. It depends on how much you want the money
difference. There is a lot of work parting out a car and it is only
worth it if you have a lot of time on your hands. I would just put
a sign on it and sell it for a few hundred bucks. Just my 2cents.
By the way I have 6 cars (5 driveable includes my MI 16) and 3
motorcycles (2 rideable) for only 2 drivers. A driveavailability
(huh?) average of 7/2 = 3.5 and yes people call me crazy.
