What is the Canadian red book value for a 1997 Plymouth breeze peeled paint and transmission gone?

Donate it to a charity and get a tax write-off. Other than doing that, it has no ';value'; unless someone needs parts.What is the Canadian red book value for a 1997 Plymouth breeze peeled paint and transmission gone?
A 1997 Plymouth Breeze in Poor Condition (needing serious mechanical work, paint is peeled, etc), is worth around $300-500.





Subtract from that the cost of a transmission of $1200-1500.





Which puts the value at around negative $800-1000.





Unless you pay someone to take the car, it's a 100% loss for them. It'll cost 4-5 times the value of the car, to get it to be an okay car again. Not even remotely worth it.





Try giving it away, or sell it to a salvage yard for $200. That's about the only way it will have any value.What is the Canadian red book value for a 1997 Plymouth breeze peeled paint and transmission gone?
Lets see now last week car bodies were worth $60/ton, lets say it weighs 1 ton, now gotta get rid of gas tank, A/C, %26amp; all fluids. OK lets haul it to scrap on the truck for $25 fuel %26amp; expences. Now I'm into it for say 3 hours labour @ $30/hr + $25 fuel = $115 - $60 from scrap yard =$55 that u owe me for gettin rid of your clunker. This is a 12 yr old car with bad trans %26amp; paint ,it's basically worth nothing,if a salvage yard will buy it, jump at the first $50, go buy beer %26amp; relax.
About nothing. New transmission will cost around $1500-2000 to buy and install.





The car is worth less than that.





Doing the math...that makes the car pretty much worthless.
