Question What to do with my old car?

I've got a '92 Acura Integra that won't start anymore. (battery is fine, and the engine turns over, but it doesn't start)

Because of this and some other pre-existing problems with it's ABS, I've decided to put it out of it's misery. Can someone offer the best option for getting rid of it? I've heard the kidney foundation gives a small tax reciept, but is their someone else who overs "more"? Since it won't run, I'd need them to tow it.

Thanks!

I had a car that died, called one of those "cash for junkers" places. Got 500 bucks out of it.

Replace the starter and make it into a sick field bomber!

Get a fire suit... start at 22x & deerfoot heading northbound... light er up and see how far you make it.



except it won't start... that may be an issue. Front yards will suffice.

These guys got it right. Take it to a remote area and blow it up somehow.


Oh and record it and share on CP.
