Default Parting out car,questions

My sisters friend has a civic coupe 94 DX with 250,000 miles and recently they tboned it and now the door is caved in,still driviable but looks really bad.Sorry dont have pics but they paid her 1600 for it and she got the car for 1500.She wants to just get a new car rather than fixing it.What do you guys think?Should she sell it,part it out,sell it to the junkyard or what?She wants another civic so a parts car is out of the question.Its just a DD.She still has everything good tho. I think she would be better off parting it out.What do you guys recommend?How much will the junkyard probably pay her?Which option will give her the most money back?thanks

Just post up a classified on HT classifieds in your area asking if anyone needs something off that car. Then junk it

Yard usually gives like $50-100 to junk it.

her best optin is to part it out and then when she can't sell anything else then sell it to a junk yard. a junk yard won't give her **** for it, whether it's missing parts or not.

post some pics up.
what color is the interior? was it in an accident, other than her current situation?

If you have the time to take the car apart, piece by piece, i say part it out. It shouldnt take too long to get rid of all of your parts and you will make way more than what they yard will pay. Part it out FTW

There are so many people on here that will hit you up for parts easy.

If power locks and windows are compatible with a 92 hatch, i got dibs.

Edit: seems compatible. I just need the internals...
