Guy is selling a car on Craigslist and says this:

quote:

This very was in very LIGHT rear end collision (No frame, NO quarter panel damage and NO airbags deployed) in this car and therefore it has a salvage title.


A car has to be deemed a total loss by an insurance company to be issued a salvage title. No way a car w/ minor damage is considered a total loss unless it is like 10 years old, then maybe.

I'd suggest lowering your hopes then.

A total loss can be as little as 35% of the cars value. Doesn't always mean it was too damaged to fix.

I can look and see if a frame is damaged.
I have bought a salvage title before and had it changed to reconstructed.

The only thing you can't do with a salvage title is get comprehensive insurance.


ETA - car in OP is not what I was thinking about.
But I would buy that car if the parts where changed correctly and the frame was straight.

nothing wrong with buying someone else's junk for cheap.

So you'd have to pay cash for a $30k 4-Runner that may or may not drive cattywampus down the interstate. Pass.
