Gump pulled in $250 for a stripped down hulk.  Would have been $300 if I took 
it to them.  Had it been more complete, I think scrap would have been closer to 
Kaleb price.

Probably because the recyclers are think they are likely stolen, unless
they are being brought in by a known legit source e.g. an exhaust shop.

The only people that are supposed to be able to buy used converters legally
is a salvage yard.  It is a big fine if you get caught installing a used
catalytic converter.

They are also the most stolen part, aside from wheels, so some yards might not 
want to take loose converters from unknown sellers.

alternators may be sold separately also.

since i had a lot of cars I got to the know the junk guy.  he would remove
alternator and cats and take the rest to the scrap yard where they would
ultimately be melted.

depending on where you go they may not may not require gas tank removal.  i
think he usually removed.

I know you said no special prep but...

Always cut off catalytic converters and sell them to the salvage yard
separate from the car.  Large import converters can bring near $100 alone.
Most yards around here require you to punch a big hole in the bottom of the
gas tank so they can easily see that is empty.  They also pay more if you
take the tires back home with you.
  Not sure on prices right now, been a while.  Most salvage yards are glad
to tell you what they are paying, usually per ton.  Be careful to make sure
if the price is by net ton or gross ton so you can figure the per pound
price.

Good luck, Mike

A wrecked VW Vanagon.

Runs, but not drivable.  Already totaled by insurance co.  I bought it
back with the intention of fixing it but have not found the time and
it's becomming an annoyance.

Would be good for parts but I probably don't have time to part it out.
Trying to get an idea of the bottom end of its value (i.e. as scrap).

Average quote for 13 Feb 13 is in the $9.50 per 100 lb range. Some
variation for region for whole cars.  You did say ball park.. it is.

Can anyone provide a reasonable estimate of the current scrap prices per
100lb for vehicles, with no special preparation (e.g. with engine,
transmission, etc. NOT removed).

I'm sure there's some variation by region and buyer but I'm just
interested in a ballpark.
