Depends on the car. If it's totaled and not driveable, probaby 10-20% of the value of a comparable clean car.
An RC dump truck may be fun for a 3 year old as long as they parental supervision. They may not understand yet how to play with the truck though since it would be an advanced toy for a 3 year old toddler.
Some charities will pick up and dispose of old cars for the salvage value. You even get a tax receipt for your contribution S
Salvage value is an estimate based on some logic. For example, if you want to know what a fork lift will be worth after 10 years, find out what 10 year old forklifts are selling for today. If you think the forklift will be scrapped after 10 years, figure out how much it weighs and estimate the value of scrap metal in 10 years. If the equipment can be leased, find out what the residual value would be on a 10 year lease. These residual values are a percentage of original cost calculated by finance companies based on historical experience - so use their calculation and expertise.
That depends on the specific salvage yard and the quality of the old car and it's parts. But yes, most will pay for old cars. Check with the specific salvage yard for exact prices.
Salvage business is about salvaging old, rusted machinery, planes and ships and selling them.
Yes, if you want to drive it on the road/register it. Might be able to get a salvage title.

This is possible. For example: I drive a old Grumpy old Pick up truck to do chores. It has a working sale value of less than $2000. This is because it has some things that would need to be repaired before passing a safety inspection. The engine and other drive line components could be sold as salvage for as much as $4,000 because in working condition there is a demand for them.
its history
Auto Salvage yards.
Condition, what year they are from and if they are a set determines the value.
