Good bye to an old friend...
 
After many months of being used as a storage shed, I finally sent my classic No Fear Cavalier on to the big highway in the sky. That car served me well, and had many adventures and experiments with it. It ran right up to the moment it left on the tow truck, but really had too many issues to try and sell it as a driver. I bought it in 2006 with 7k miles on it, and it went out with well over 200k on it. Built in Lordstown, Ohio and retired in Kearny, NJ. A true American hero.

The brakes were going to the floor. That was enough for me to junk it

Brakes! Who needs brakes?

IROCZman15 10-26-2018 06:46 AM

ya could have made it into a 24 hours of lemons car. or sold it to a lemons team looking for a fun car for $500

brakes aren't part of the $500 limit in lemons racing so a team could have put in a whole new/upgraded brake system

What did the salvage yard end up giving you for it?

ThoR294 10-30-2018 02:16 PM

You can scrap cars without a title?

Yup. Just had to fill out some paperwork and show registration and my driver's license.

I always thought you had to chop up cars that didn't have a title

I have scrapped many many cars and have never given a title with them.

Nowadays, most yards take info down to ensure they don't get ****ed if its hot. Most yards....

V 10-31-2018 06:41 PM

Or you can just give them a random title. I have plenty.
