Anyone have any experience parting a complete car?
I've got about 20 old Porsche's that I've been collecting since the 80's. I've
identified about 6 of them that are not restorable. These are accident damaged
or rusted and just too far gone. I'm thinking about parting these out since it
appears that the parted value is several times great than the un-parted car is
worth. I also have a 20 x 20 storage unit with all types of engines,
transmissions, engine parts, body parts from several other cars.
Anyone tried selling parts on ebay or elsewhere on a small scale and made it work?
I'm not looking to make a living or anything but I would like to afford some other
toys with the proceeds.
My biggest concern is getting about half the parts sold and the rest just sitting
and then I'd just have a hulk sitting around. I have the facilities, tools and know
how to do it. I've rebuilt 911, 914 and 944 engines, restored various models but
I've never parted a single car or sold any parts. Guess that's why I have so many.
Tell me your stories.
