Sell a Car That Doesn’t Run, As It Is
A car that won’t run is hard to sell. Dealers don’t want it, private buyers lose interest the moment you say “it doesn’t start,” and having it towed somewhere can cost you money before you even get an offer.
That is exactly the kind of car we buy. We are a junkyard at 700 Park St in Baytown, and for more than 10 years we have been buying non-running cars across the Houston area. You don’t need to jump it, fix it, or get it rolling. Tell us what is wrong, get a price on the phone, and we will bring the tow truck.
COMMON PROBLEMS
Cash for Broken Cars With Any of These Problems
- Blown or seized engine
- Bad transmission (starts, but won’t move)
- Overheating or a cracked head gasket
- Electrical problems or a car that won’t crank
- Broken timing belt or chain
- Sat so long it just won’t start anymore
You don’t need to know exactly what is wrong. “It won’t start” is enough for us to work with.
Should You Fix It Before You Sell It?
Usually, no. Big repairs like a new engine or transmission can cost thousands of dollars, and you almost never get that money back when you sell an older car. You would be paying to fix a car just to sell it.
If the problem is small and cheap, like a dead battery, fixing it can sometimes be worth it if you plan to keep driving the car. But if you have already decided to sell, there is no need to fix anything. We price the car as it is.
What to Tell Us When You Call
These details help us give you an accurate price:
- Does it crank, start, or do nothing at all?
- If it starts, does it move or drive?
- Any warning lights, smoke, or strange noises before it stopped?
- How long has it been sitting?
- Are the tires flat, and can the car roll?
- Do you have the keys and the title?
Honest details mean a price that matches the car when we pick it up.
Is a Car That Doesn’t Run Worth Anything?
Yes. Even if the engine is gone, a car still has value in its metal and its working parts. Things like the year, make, and model, the weight of the vehicle, and which parts still work all affect the price. A car that runs is usually worth more, but a non-running car is still worth something to us.
And because towing is free, the price we agree on is the cash you get.
