    I got one for 280 and made money on just the weight at 200 a ton.
    If I didn't have bad luck, I'd have no luck at all...

    I pay $500-$1000 per car. But i part them out. I have to offer a premium over what the yards pay. People bring the cars to me, i part them out then haul off the carcasses. So its a win win deal. The yard even pays me a premium for clean car bodies. About $30 more than shred, so that covers the fuel to haul it to the yard. I processed a caravan and a voyager last year. Looked to be about $3000 worth of parts each.
    I buy and sell all types of scrap and escrap. I buy specialty and hard to sell escrap. I buy resale items. PM me or contact me at jghilino@hotmail.com
    I AM ACTIVELY BUYING ESCRAP OF ALL TYPES. BOARDS, RAM, CPUS AND MUCH MORE

    You are seriously my hero! I've GOT to get to this level. I can get cars for $500-$600 all day long.. but no where near parting out things like this to be able to make $3K a car. NICE!

    Do not pay more than 350$ for it @ 200$/ton yard price. Then remove all the candy items. Rad, alt, cat, batt, copper wire anything you can sell seperate, you should be able as a rookie to get 100-125$ profit after expenses. If you want to, like jghilino said, part out and make more
    I would tend to agree more if it were '01 to '07 model more demand for those body parts and more ppl. willing to pay more for them/more demand. Those town and country are fully loaded more electronic problems but interchangeable with caravan/grand caravan. Depends on your ability to sell parts.

    id pay $300-$500 if i have to pick it up, usually a couple hundred extra if they deliver it to me.

    Like dave said, the town and country parts also interchange with caravan and voyager. You will also get compatibly with alot of other Chrysler vehicles by looking up part numbers. The parts sell quickly. I usually have a car about 1/2 way sold/parted before we actually get around to parting it all the way down.

    if it has ac, the condensor, compressor, blower motor, ac lines and compressor brack with belt tensioner will be worth a small fortune. Also the dash and whats underneath it contains about $700 worth of parts. Drivers door parts sell quickly also.
