list:

i think it would be helpful to have some discusssion of experiences
selling vanagons or other autos for scrap - in particular, recent price
data.

i agree that it is unfortunate in most cases for a vanagon to end up as
scrap, but like others on the list, i find that there is little demand for
an '84 gl in an ordinary sale.

aside from reporting on actual prices paid around the country for scrap,
any pointers/anecdotes on where to get the best price, negotiating, dodges
and pitfalls, would be useful.

it seems that there is a wide variation in prices bid for scrap, and some
places require the gas tank to be removed first, and maybe other fluids
drained (implying a tow).

yes, i have an '84, and it is for sale, and located in mcminnville, or.
