Cutting up vehicles - worth it?

I've had several offers lately to buy "scrap" cars in the $100-200 range.

If I could get a car dropped off to my place for that money wouldn't it be a no-brainer?

Just drain the fluids, pull out the interior, engine, trans. Save any re-sellable parts and cut up the rest, separate it and throw it all in my van and scrap it.

Any reasons not to go through with it?

One car is a 2004 Civic, the other a 2001 Jetta.



Shred is $40/Mt Aluminum $0.40/lb and the scrap yard is 13km away from my shop.
