you might get $150 for it at the junkyard.

call people that pay cash for cars you might see $500 . I did that with an old explorer that had no brakes and a hole in the gas tank. I got $500 for it and they towed it away!

If it's running you could give it to Good Will, even get a tax deduction for it.

What if its completely junked and only has front tires on it, no rear axle or anything? Just a stripped out shell half rusted good for little more than scrap metal? Will anyone just come and take it for free?

As long as you have a title they will, they changed the law now so if you don't have a title your sol.
