I took a few to 58 scrap on route 58 in suffolk today. I got 20 each for them and they were rather large.

Could i have got more? Probably but i don't know their value and well no one else is buying them.

Try craigslist and posting on here. You never know what people need for their older cars. And if you want instant money then take it to some scrap.

How is that the reason why they won't take them? They are NOT stolen they are BAD that's why they got replaced and they can Damn sure use them more than I could
