Sheen,
I am a little behind reading so this is a late reply. But my
experience with a salvage title was a nightmare. I got a '76 Porsche
911 pretty cheaply, I thought. It had a title so I thought
everything was good. But it had a salvage/theft background and when
I tried to sell it NO ONE would touch it. There are just too many
good cars out there to take this one. And if you are willing to pay
$12,000, I am sure you can do way better, salvage title or no.

I'm talking to a local guy about buying his 69' convert for a daily
driver. It looks fairly clean, stock 350, auto, TA hood and spoiler,
blue interior, primered white exterior. Says he has it in storage so
it may need a little work to get it rolling. Asking price is $15k.
Seems high to me. I was thinking around $12k tops and then he told me
it has a salvage title and that he was told it was a theft recovery
with engine and trans stolen, i.e. not matching #'s anymore. He's
offered the VIN# so I assume everything is a go for registering it.
Q: How much does a car's value drop when it has a salvage title?
Thanks,
Sheen
