A donation to a charity should work, right? They'll take it away for free, and then fix it and sell it.
eta: And you'll get a tax deduction!
Also, have you looked into buying a used alternator from a junkyard?
I just said that you're pretty. Even when you're covered in...engine grease, you're... No, especially, especially when you're covered in engine grease.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

OH, SH, you might want to advertise your car on Craigslist as a "mechanic's special", explaining what needs to be done to fix it.

I am actually doing work. Invoice detective work on an account that has not been paid since 10/2008. Vendor FAIL for not contact anyone sooner. They were sending invoices to an employee that was fired in October, never noticed the emailed were getting bounced.

That's a pretty nice car, your insurance may let you suspend coverage if you aren't driving it and that would give you time to sell it. If it's not running, you're not going to get a lot of money, but you can probably get something.

You could sell the car on Craig's List and say that it has a broken alternator. Reduce the asking price by $700 and see if you get any takers. You can only take the tax deduction if you itemize, so you may not want to bother.

Once a month, my coworker gets a call from some medical supply company looking for payment from the hospital. Every time, my coworker tells them they have the wrong number, but they still call her back the next month.

If you just completely do not want to deal with it, you can call a junkyard and they will take it for free but not pay you anything. I called, for my dead 98 neon, just eft the key in it and it was gone by the time I got home from work.
