it should depend directly on how far you are located to a steel mill. there are 15 scrapyards within 5 min drive of the local steel mill and the yards pay $190 - $230 a tone but you can sell the rubber for $ 2.00 a tire to a rubber recyclers and don't forget to cut off that catalytic converter. removing the rad i am sure is to make sure you drained the fluid but its worth more then 230 a ton per lb.
