Just says Salvage, look it up youself in the *** listing lol. I googled the VIN and looks like it was bought in a auto Salave Auction Site, but that's all the info I really found. Curious to see before repair photos if it was bad.

The only salvage title I'd ever consider buying is from hail damage.

Alot of convertibles have salvage/rebuilt titles from having the tops slashed open and the interiors ripped out.

Salvage title beaters are great. Cheap as fuck and you drive it into the ground then punt it and get another. It doesn't take much to total something worth $5k. A minor collision with cosmetic damage is more than enough. Mechanically it's still in great shape. You have to be smart enough to be able to figure out why it was totaled is all. Flood damage? No. Bent frame? No. Airbag deployment? Maybe.

A couple years back i bought 16 trucks from a dealership that were salvaged. They were considered flooded since the water reached the bottom of the break rotors.

Got them all for around 35 cents on the dollar.
