If there’s nothing you enjoy more than fixing up a car and restoring it to its former glory, it’s time to pay a visit to Roadrunner Recycling. The San Marcos, TX, car recycling center offers cash for junk cars and sells some of those cars, trucks, and vans to people looking for a fixer upper.

Many of the cars at Roadrunner Recycling just need a little tender loving care. In some cases, the owners didn’t want to pay for costly transmission or engine repairs and decided that scrapping a car was a better option. If you’re not intimidated by replacing an engine or transmission, you might just find the car of your dreams at the car recycling center.

Other cars and trucks can benefit from some paint and bodywork, in addition to a few other repairs. After a little work, they can provide a reliable means of transportation. Whether you’re looking for a fixer upper to replace your previous car or just enjoy the challenge of bringing an older or damaged car back to life, the recycling center offers plenty of vehicles to choose from.

Vehicles range in price depending on the condition, although $10,000 is typically the upper limit. Just think, for a few thousand dollars and a little elbow grease you can repair and restore a vehicle instead of spending much more for a new car or truck. Car recycling is not only a good choice for your wallet, but it also gives you the opportunity to showcase your mechanical abilities.

When you’re ready to buy your next fixer upper, call Roadrunner Recycling at (512) 353-4511 or stop by the car recycling center. You’ll find more information on their website and Google+ page.
