After the ignition switch is ripped out of an old car, is it pretty much worthless?
My youngest son has a 2001 Chrysler Sebring with about 116,000 miles on it. We have already spent a ton of money on it fixing things like the air conditioning, the power windows, new tires, struts, starter, alternator, battery, radiator, water pump, etc.
Last month, after the police recovered it, it’s pretty much trashed on the dashboard. The radio and other parts were removed. i’m thinking we could sell it as a fixer-upper for about $300 to a private party on craigslist. But my wife is thinking the junkyard is probably the best way to get rid of it.

If it were me i'd probably advertise it as 'spares or repair'.
Price up the component parts. That'll give you some idea of total value, then figure out if its worth having it cannibalized for parts on the driveway bit by bit or whether to just offer the whole thing at a cheaper price if buyer collects.
Surprised the insurance company didn't right it off
