    Scrap Value???

    anyone know the lastest price for scrapping a punto gt shell without wheels in the essex area? my mate told me he got 120 quid for his mk1 shell just before xmas.

    also, i am having a little difficulty getting the loom out, if i have to cut it, is it worth stripping in for the copper, or just scrap it as it is with the wiring?

    cheers if you can help

    First up, whats up with the shell?

    You won't get much for it around here, at most £70 for complete shell. If you left it as a dead rolling car, you will get good money, they are paying £200 plus for complete car

    I got 80 quid for mine 3 weeks ago. That was with no engine gearbox etc, just shell with steelies on and interior still in. That was after a charge for collection because they came and picked it up as well.

    As for the wiring I wouldnt bother. If you have any copper tanks though get them to the scrappy, I just weighed in two Elson tanks and got 175 quid!!

    nothing is up with she shell, its a bloody shame really, nice broom yellow with no rust or anything, i just need my garage space for something else now and i am crap at selling stuff and it takes me ages. so i stripped the car completely and am going to sell all the bits off as and when i can, when i ever get the time to take some pictures and it isn't raining.

    the turbo went bang a few years back, and instead of just buying a turbo, i bought a 4.1 setup and only ever got around to putting half of it on due to work and other commitments. like i say, time to let it go, had some good times, (and some bad times, mostly breakdowns), but time to move on.

    so, 80 quid three weeks ago, wihtout gear box, i rekon i want at least a ton then. if not i'll tell them they have wasted five quids worth of diesel and get someone else out who knows a good deal. cheap cheap very cheap, you buy.
