Stripping an old fiesta

[Matt67]

Yeah basically a mate has asked me to strip his car off anything that could be sold before he sends it to the scrappy. I've got a bit of mechanical know how, like what everything is and how to take it off, my question is what parts are worth taking off for sale?

Bare in mind its a 12 year old shitbox.

It doesn't have to be a rolling chassis to scrap it does it?

Because we have a trailer?

[VTRelite]

if you have a trailer then take everything out of it

stick it on ebay and people will buy

So literally just take it down to a bare shell?

It can work well what you will find is that people only want certain bits and there other bits no one can sell.Got to gauge if its worth the hassle for some parts ie dash will take about an hour to get out is it worth it if no one buys it???
