Pizza delivery! Did it for about 9 weeks over 2 summers in my Dutton! You won't earn much though.
2 possible probs;
1. Car should be reliable, employers won't like you if you keep stopping
2. Check the money you get is good enough. In 1990 I think the wage was £2 ph plus a free pizza to eat, but you also got paid X (totally forgotten - 50p?) per pizza for mileage expenses. Drive sensibly and take a number of pizzas on each delivery, and the petrol money added up to a reasonable amount.
Oh yeah, and 3. check your insurance - business driving.
You won't get rich, but it was a real laugh when I did it.

Look beyond your age, dont fall for the trap of I'm only this age so no one is going to give me some large amounts of dosh. Find something you like doing and see if there is a way of making some easy money from it.
I like driving so to get some spare cash when I was a broke student I use to drive round looking for old pallets which I could sell onto a pallet dealer at the local lorry stop over for £3.50 each. I could fit 6 into my car so for every trip I had over £20 in cash given to me. Do this 5 times a day and you will soon have some spare cash. You just need to know where to look
for the pallets and find a buyer for them. Don't go for the blue euro pallets

Goto a large Industrial estate for the pallets and usually the warehouse guys will let you have the ones that are not needed, always ask never just take them. Ask some HGV drivers where you can sell some pallets as these guys can and do make a fortune doing this week in week out but on a bit larger scale.
