Default Junk man,scrap man?

Does any one know of a junk man,scrap metal man to come pick up car shells?

Im going to be buying another 7 soon,as I fugure what im going to do with it.
I didnt want to just junk or resell the shell,it would be better for me to use the parts towards 2 of my RX7s,in the long run.I will save alot of money.

So After I take all the body panels and interior out.I might even take the rear end and front suspesnion.So I might not even be a rolling chassis.Does anyone who will pick the shell up?

Title will be included,and its clean.

Most junk yards will if you call 'em. I sold a non-streetable '88 Delta 88 for $68 to Copher back when they used to be down in St. Pete.

There are a couple of guys that advertise in the classifieds in the SP Times. I can't remember who I used a few years ago, but I think they were tied to a salvage yard. Ask them if they require a tiltle to pick it up tho, some wont.

I will have the title when I get the car,thats not a problem.
My concerns are,
How are they going to get it out,when its not a rolling chassis.

Will they charge me?

Theres alot of guys who do it for free,and just use a comealong to drag it on a trailer.But i dont work in autoshops/or the dealership anymore.So I dont know whos out there.

Thanks for the info.

I had a shell of a Charger that the axle housing was broken. It went sideways behind the tow truck, but he took it. I also had front clip for a old Barracuda, he had a helper with him load it up on the flat bed. I've never had to pay to get them removed, I figure as I'm sure they do, that they will get $$ at the scrap yard.

Ive seen a flat bed tow truck pull a lifted Toyota pickup with no front axle and no rear tires. The frame of the truck was digging into the ground, and that bigass winch was screaming
