What Things Can I Remove When I Scrap Car?

[Mini-itx]

My car's COE is ending soon (less than 2yrs time), thus I am just thinking what can I remove from the car to sell for some $$$. I know I can take out my rims and throw in some cheapo ones with bald tyres. ECU take out also.

 

How about engine? Can I take out the engine and swap in a blown/high mileage one?

 

What else can I remove from the car?

 

Thanks.

Don't know. Just thinking if someone just nice killed his engine, then can do a swap. I take the blown engine since the regulations never say car must be in working condition when its scrapped.

 

I also have an old WTA intercooler system and radiator. Maybe can rip out and sell also.....

You can remove everything except the engine and the chassis. The scrap will only help you to process the "document".if these two tally with your logcard.

You can swap your engine with one that's blown out/high mileage. But one of the cars must scrap immediately after(yours in this case).

 

This swap must be documented by the WS with the serial numbers checked and LTA will process the swap acknowledgement.

 

 

Everything else of monetary value can be removed and replaced with a similiar one.

 

1) Tyres and rims - sell and swap for stock and near botak tyres(don't get into accident because of tyres)

2) Leather seats sell/swap for fabric

3) Whatever modifications you do on top of original

4) Dashboard, plastic covers, door panels boot lids, hoods head/tail lamps, alarm system, there's a buyer for everything.

 

Don't let it go to waste by giving everything away to the scrap yard who will carrot interested buyers anyway.

 

 

I'm sure someone out that is looking for a part and don't want to spend a bomb. (e.g. catalyst, muffler, gearbox, engine cover, interior parts)

 

 

 

Hope this helps

 

cheerios!

OIC, so the chassis and engine number must tally. Hmm.... Then I am thinking about removing the internals of the engine....hmm.....

 

I think the camshafts and crank will worth something..... Pistons and conrods don't think anyone wants. Valves and springs....maybe

Just scrapped my old car at the beginning of this year. Removed everything except the engine and chasis. even the doors and a few other panels also swapped.

It depends on the scrapyard. Some wants to export it out and they want a working car.

So you need to remove and replace those you think are valuable before handing over.

 

Some really scrap and only require paperwork to be completed properly with LTA, with regards to chassis and engine number.

Your panty collection.

 

[Mini-itx]

Is it compulsory to have the Turbo mounted with the engine when I scrap the car? Or can I just rip out the tubo and scrap with just bare engine (no intake and exhaust manifold as well).

Scrap and export two difference thing, right?! If u know tht ur car will be scrapped, removing all the things shld not be problem.
