Just curious, I see many signs on the streets saying "I buy junk cars". Does anyone know why/what they do with them. I assume they sell them but would like know specifically. Thanks

Sell for scrap metal ( a few may be chopped up for used parts, some models the air bag alone is worth a hundred or so wholesale)
But they crush the cars and sell it for metal weight.

Boy, you are quick. Just trying to find a way to make some extra income. Thanks

Some of them get parted out for specific pieces on sites like eBay but as Fr_Chuck said, it's usually scrap metal weight.

You'd be surprised what diamond in the ruff some of these guys find. For nothing!

Don't forget the catalytic converters!
