Who to call to pick up a car with no suspension/drivetrain???

I have a car in my garage on jack stands that I would really like out. It does not have any suspension/axles/wheels so I cannot roll the car anywhere. Has anybody dealt with this before? I'm sure it is worth a good amount for in scrap metal, but who could I call to pick it up?

I can't remember the guy, but there are people that will come and drag your car onto a trailer. It's worth a couple hundred in scrap, but it's a lot of work to get it there without suspension and wheels. Check on CL.

I think TKR Mark said he has put it up on craigslist and somebody will usually come get it.

If you find somebody be sure to post up as I've always wondered myself

yep. the talon shell that was just like it. I put it for free up on CL. I had 10 people email me back about it. a total bare shell is worth around 75 to 100 right now.

Yep, check CL if anything. Some person on CL towed out my brother's accord. scraping the ground and hooked to the front of the car. the right front tire was being held by a loose tie rod bushing lol.
