what can I sell a 1991 Mercury Sable for in Dallas, TX?

Asked by chriskaypal Oct 02, 2007 at 06:01 PM about the 1991 Mercury Sable LS Sedan FWD

Question type: Shopping & Pricing

This 1991 Sable is not currently running, but has had very extensive work done on it.  I've had the engine rebuilt and the transmission rebuilt and then I went overseas and it sat for a long time and now it doesn't run for whatever reason -- I don't know why.  I've checked the battery -- that's not it!  The body is in very good shape, but the original paint failed, as they did in 1991!  The interior is very good -- leather seats, power everything -- all working.  This would be a great car to get parts off of if you didn't want to fix it.  What's it worth?

As I see it you have three chioces: figure out the problem and fix it and then determine where you stand with the vehicle; part it out (which could take a while; sell it to a junk yard (since it isn't running). The market value for a non-running vehicle is almost impossible to determine, but is definitely substantially less than if it was running.
