Getting rid of the donor shell?
 

Finished stripping my donor over the long weekend :D

Now how do I get rid of the body shell before the neighbours start complaining?

Get the yellow pages out and start ringing round, I rang loads of people before I found someone that would take what I had left with no VIN or ID numbers.
Alot said no as soon as I said it had no engine/wheels etc.

Other option which I believe some people have used is an angle grinder and a few trips to the scrappy/recycling centre.

Hope that helps, good luck.

Any body that has an advert in yellow pages will not be interested as the shell is only worth about £30-40 when weighed in and will only just cover the diesel. Try looking at the cards in the paper shop window or just wait for the local pikies to come knocking, you'll be surprisied when 3 of them just man handle it on to the transit.

My local garage/ MOT centre (where my lockup is) has a guy that comes around once a week picking up the scrap.
Maybe worth asking your local garage for details?

I shipped mine to the breakers on a trailer, it was the start of a good relationship with the guys there.
Good guys to know when looking for parts.

I cut the roof off,

then split it in three with a recip saw!! then took it to the scrappy in chunks

It was messy, tnt might have been a cleaner job :p

I got lucky and someone bought mine as he wanted to use it for banger racing.

My Breakers collect anything, but they are only 2 miles away.

I Have cut a few up, it's hard work.

I really hope I don't end up having to cut it up!

I may have a back-up option, just got an email back from a breakers saying they would take it away if I paid them £48...

£48!! Sod that.

look in your local free paper, there will be someone wanting scrap metal.

TT

we had a corsa shell taken away £60 in my pocket there will be someone that will want it for scrap

I left my garage door open, came in the house for 15 minutes for soup. Guy comes knocking on the door wanting to know if I want to scrap the Mini bodyshell sitting on sawhorses in the garage. Around here, if you set anything metal by the curb, it will be gone by the next morning.

I don't call the peeps in the paper, I have some stuff I don't want them to take and you can guarantee it would go missing if they knew.

Or cut it up and sell the quarters on eBay if they are any good for repairing other cars!

The same with me!!!!!!!

Hopefully sorted!
I stuck a sign on it saying 'Free - call this number' a couple of days ago.
A guy phoned me this morning offering to take it away this weekend :cool:
I really didn't think the sign would work, as it's tucked up out of the way down a cul-de-sac.

ebay, freeads and gumtree ad for a penny
someone might just take it away for you :D

Woo Hoo, the donor is gone :D

A local breakers / scrap yard took it away for me today.
I didn't bother asking them for any cash, just wanted it gone!

You can see my solution : reduced Sierra
