What's this worth?

I have a '94 SC2 that's been crashed - just hard enough to total it, according
to the insurance company. Everything from the firewall back is in perfect
shape, and the engine and transmission are fine. Would it be worth putting this
up for sale for parts, or would I be better off just calling the junkyard, and
let them have it?
I'm considering Ebay, too.
What do you guys think?

Just remove the spaces, fix the last part, and so on.

 

Why not do both? Part it out on ebay for 7 day auctions then scrap the
rest?

What kind of radio does it have?

 

If it is totaled, doesn't the insurance company keep the wreck?

....I bought one back years ago - they just deduct the scrap value from the
payoff value. So if the check was say $2,500 and you told them you wanted
the car, they would come up with a scrap value (ex: $500), and you'd end up
with a $2,000 check.

Is this anyone else's experience? Blue - you out there?, you know about
this stuff.

 

That's the way it's worked for me in the past....
1986, AZ, State Farm.

Works this way for fire damaged equipment too (1998, NY, Travelers)

If the insurance company pays you for anything (car, fire damage, etc)
technically, they own the item. They can either claim it (they did on
my car) or tell you to trash it (they did on our fire damage, they
took a few things, told us to trash the rest).

With the car, they offered to sell it back for a few hundred, which I
should have taken them up on but didn't.

Salvage laws vary from state to state. Some states ( I think most is more
accurate) will require you to have the car retitled with a "salvage " title to
indicate that it was rebuild after being deemed a total loss. Typically they
will deduct a salvage value from the actual cash value . If anyone is
interested in seeing just how much wrecked cars/bikes/boats/rvs go for :
Salvagedirect.com is a website used by some insurance companies to move there
cars . Some pretty cool wrecks on there - Vipers, Z06 Vettes ...
