Valuation Factors
Expert Ford Mustang Junk Car Buyers
As specialist buyers of United States vehicles, we have deep knowledge of Ford's engineering history dating back to 1903.America's oldest major automaker. The F-150 is America's best-selling vehicle. Also known for Mustang, Explorer, and commercial vehicles.
Ford has long been a key player in the Mainstream, Performance, Commercial market. However, like all machinery, they eventually reach end-of-life.The Mustang, in particular, is a vehicle we frequently purchase.When the time comes, it's crucial to sell to a buyer who understands the salvage value of the components.
Model Specific Insight:
The Mustang features V8, V6, I4 Turbo engines that are always in demand for remanufacturing. Don't let a dealership lowball you on a trade-in when the scrap value might be higher!
Market Value Analysis
Ford vehicles, despite being in active production, hold specific scrap value characteristics. Our valuation model accounts for:
- Precious Metals: Catalytic converters in Ford cars often contain high volumes of Platinum and Palladium.
- Aluminum Content: Many Mustang parts are aluminum, which trades higher than steel.
- Global Demand: We export components for Ford to markets where these cars are still heavily driven.
Currently, we are seeing <strong>very_high</strong> demand for Ford Mustang parts.This allows us to be extremely aggressive with our pricing.

Estimated Repair: $1,500-$3,500
