Default Dead timing chain and assembly - Need to sell

I have a 2001 F-150 super crew. Diagnosed as a bad timing chain and assembly. Looking at too much to repair. Anyone know of places that will buy the truck? Tried several Junk Car sites and they only offer about $200. If not I'll look into donating.

Thanks in advance.

At only $200 you'd come out ahead by donating it. I've never done it so I don't know if the foundation sets the claimed vehicle value, or if you get to generate that number yourself (I think the limit is $5000). Just for discussion, if your tax bracket is 25% and you can claim a value of $2000, you will save $500 in taxes at the end of the year.
