Find out why and if the work was done right, then no worries. Mine was salvage because it was stolen and the insurance company had paid the guy off before the car was found.

the guy told me it had been stolen. no wrecks on the car, just the interior was gone. maybe the engine was fubared also.



the car hasnt been hit, and if it has who ever fixed it did some magic. im usually pretty good at spotting bad body fitments and lines on cars, since i can go around getting an engined fixed and what not the body is more imposrtant to me that others. this car looked really good.

and carfax says something about the odometer...

thanks

My guess is it wasn't pushed any harder then normal cause it was stolen. Like I say, that is basically what happened to mine.

My rustang has a salvage title, runs and works great. The frame might be bent a tad, but who really cares if its just a junker to tool around in.

With a salvage title you can't get full coverage insurance. This is atleast what my insurance company told me. Any of you with salvage titles have full coverage?

mine has a salvage title. But not in my State(NC). It has a salvage title in Maryland. And the only reason I know this is cause of car fax. and of course my dumbass didnt get the car fax until after I bought it. The car has slight frame damage but my body man said it was very minimal and I could get alway with it if I just wanted to daily drive it, but with autox/drift I should fix it. Which I am in the process of doing now. and after its fixed we are gonna box it in for extra stability.
