    Quick and dirty! Cat, battery, and I cut away as much of the (accessible) engine wiring harness. Maybe starter and alternator if accessible. Rifle through the interior for any goodies or change under seats. Sometimes the ECM has value. Radiator is probably aluminum, weighing 5-10 lbs clean. Pita, not worth it. Load it up. Goodbye.



    I scrap cars "over the scale". Here that means not complete so they don't deduct for missing components, and are only to be scrapped. Your area yards may buy differently. Check before you load it up or tow it away.

    Hope this helps.
