    from what I hear, whole cars are heading up a bit but not much, and no idea exactly when other than "soonish".

    If I had 800 cars, I would do a few things to get the most value. Id take all the catalytic converts off each one as they can be worth $20-$100 each in scrap value, I would take out each battery (As that can be $7-10/battery), Id take out each non-plastic radiator ($5-30 each).... and I would also take off each non-magnetic (aluminum-alloy) rim from all the cars (about $10/each).




    Then whatever was left I would scrap whole probably. But thats just me, a guy that doesnt scrap many cars. But just what I would do based of the knowledge I have. others may know more, and obviously if any have rare/valuable parts those would be worth it to remove and resell, but I dont have that knowledge
