Agreed. Especially if it still has a catalytic converter, scrap yard will give you a few hundred.

I ended up donating my last junker after a few other options fell thru... (Cost me another trip to the DMV and $50 for them to print out a clean unsigned title that the donation place needed (It was probably going to the same junkyard). BUT, with the donation you can claim the full KBB as a charitable donation regardless of mechanical faults.

Local sales really suck, I'm probably done with them.... Such a waste of time; scammers, jerks who want to negotiate down ~50% over the phone or email before they even see it and Soooo many no-shows.

If you're a member of a local shooting range, they might want it... we use vehicles as props every month, and one of our club members donated his running minivan junker. It makes stage setup a heck of lot easier when we can drive the van onto the bay instead of having to tow our old fullsize van around.
