Sell Your Clunker

Should you earnings someone to haul out that beast in your driveway? Feasibly not: You might treasure trove someone keen to pay for it. Before you display, though, catch date to ascertain the inner class of the vehicle. The more selling points you can cite, the more select the pitch. Then scrub the heck gone of it to disclose any outer comeliness it may even hold.


Instructions


1. Locate whatever's broken provided it's inexpensive to repair: The and working parts it has, the amassed selling points you've got.


2. Check the vehicle's used-car reward very as other sellers' asking prices for the same "vintage" model in your area. It'll help you determine a realistic asking price (leave yourself room to comfortably drop the price when bargaining).


3. Bedazzle prospective buyers with whatever advantages you can find in writing: great crash-test results, clean title history.


4. Have the title ready, and registration and smog test updated. Missing paperwork or hassle for the buyer can kill a deal.


5. Include "free with car" aftermarket parts or accessories you bought, such as the hammer you use to begin it with. Maintenance records, too, indicate you had at least a little love for this vehicle.


Cleanliness impresses buyers and makes any clunker look like less of a project.


7. Read Sell a Car.


8. Clear out the interior, then wash, vacuum and wax the vehicle.6. Avoid volunteering bad news during bargaining (needs new tires and a tune-up). Pitch the high points (has new brakes, is the same car Steve McQueen drove in The Heist), but don't lie; it'll catch up with you.
