Tips & Warnings
Clean your car thoroughly. Degrease your engine with products like Engine Brite. Vacuum and dust the inside of the car; apply Armor All on all vinyl parts in the interior and exterior. Your vehicle will look its best and you increase your chances of selling your car free. You may paint mud flaps and front and rear bumpers if they have black vinyl with black spray paint.
Beware of individuals that offer to send you a money order or cashier check and want you to send them the difference. Scammers are using this tactic to scam people.
