Need a little help.. got a line on an 84 supreme for a parts car for mine... Only obvious exterior issues I saw was a dented driver door, and rusted rear bumper, it even has the front left chrome piece that everyone is in search of. It is that terrible brown color both inside and out... All the lights are in place but faded from the sun, there is no motor or trans in the car (which is fine, I dont need it and wouldnt have a use for it), it is a half top car with all the trim present.. ALL the trim. The interior has normal wear and tear... nothing too terrible but the gold mine is the dash... dash is MINT!!! not a single crack.. cluster is perfect.. hvac perfect, glove box is perfect, column perfect. Door panels are perfect.. all bezels are in place, handles, pull straps.. everything.. all the interior trim is perfect.. seat have minor rubs and one small cut ( its a brougham interior which I do not care for though).. my question to you guys.. WHAT IS THIS THING WORTH?? Realistically??

I will really probably only use the dash and door panels... The rest I will sell off or scrape... What is this thing worth?? Yo me the mint dash is worth a couple hundred.. I can get it dyed for cheap.. But he wants to get rid of the whole car..

What do the rear frame rails look like? I would offer no more than $4-$500 for a plain jane Cutlass parts car.

If your planning on parting it out make a list in Excel and put some numbers to it. For rule of thumb, I set my max purchase value at 50% of the parts value for a car just to make sure I'm covered. Looks like it's a standard Cutlass Supreme with bench seat so parts value will be a lot less unless they are mint condition. If the tailights, front facia, etc are in nice shape that will help. that brown interior color isn't the most popular out there and wasn't used in VIN 9 cars. Steel scrap varies but a G body Cutlass is likely worth at least $200 at the recycler.

$500 max, much of it is useless... unless you get the sawsall out.
Looks like all you have is dash, window trim, some wiring, sheet metal and maybe some lighting...
Do the horns work?
Is it a V8 car?
I can use those and the battery cables if they are in very nice shape.
