Fill it with lighters and fireworks and let it sit out in the sun all day.

The answer is donate it... and make sure you get a form for it in return when they pick it up. We donated to the SPCA a few years back... it doesn't have to be in running condition.

said geo died.

sitting in driveway now. What do I do with it?

I should mention that the car has to go soon. It can't sit there much longer. So hitting golf balls at it and blowing it up isnt an option.

It needs to leave in one piece? Junk yards will take anything.

If you have the title, tow it to a salvage yard, they might even give you a couple hundred (they did for my Toyota with a rod sticking out the engine)

Do this, or if they come out and get it, they usually give you $35-65 for it.

My very first car I donated it to the local fire department. Every year we have a festival and the fire department/ems/police puts on a demonstration. It was pretty cool to watch my car being ripped open with the jaws of life.
