I'll sell you my '97 Cobra for $9,500! :lol1: And it's got a build motor with a lot of (tasteful) exterior and interior mods and a clean title. Not to mention a warranty.

Nothing wrong with a rebuilt title car as long as it checks out good. Rebuilt title vehicles should be worth 60% of the kbb value. Flood cars I would not touch though.

Yeah I'm going to keep look and make sure they have clean titles

The only time you should be considering a rebuilt title car is for a racecar/weekend car that youre buying in cash and have no intention of financing or having full coverage insurance.

If I recall most places will not even cover rebuilt/salvage title cars. And if you need to finance, even tougher.

I've financed 3 rebuilt title cars. Had full coverage on all 3. Wasnt hard at all.

Don't let the title scare you. I've owned numerous cars with rebuilt titles, from wrecked to flooded. If the repair is done right, it's no biggie if you plan on keeping it. If you plan to resale, then the title Scares a lot of people, making it harder to get rid of. Go check it out, if everything on it checks out, drives great, runs great and you want it. go for it and drive the wheels off it:rockon:

I love these threads.

Stay away, headache, etc.....

All from most who have never touched a salvage.

I've had/built more than I care to count.

Water= no problem as long as it is fresh and not salt and depends on how high.
knowing how to find a water line is a big advantage.

Wreck= body shop welds are better than the tack welds from the factory.

Knowing what you start with is the biggest part. Clearly he has no clue.
And the price is high.
So stay away form this one for these reasons.

+65,000 to these

Not a fan of flood cars though. Personal preference.

Not the case in Michigan. I have bought, fixed and sold many. No problem for buyers to get financing :shrug:

When I first started looking at a mustang back when I was 16 I found a red v6 called the insurence they said the would cover the r title but I can't recall if that was full coverage. The car I'm looking for will be a dd till I graduate college and save up for a beater for winter and bad days. Also I'd rather buy the car right and not have to get a loan.

Shit, my bad man. I found that one while looking for a Mach for a buddy. Not sure how the hell that got thrown into the mix.

Send me the vin on the mustang if you want. I don't normally offer, but I can run it if you want.

Hahaha it's cool man I'm taking my time to find the car I want no rush now.

 

[devin1986]

Sent you a pm with the car's history. Jury is in... that's a big ole' mess. Looks like at least 4 or 5 inspections for the repair, duplicate titles, lots of shit to beware of. I'm hope I'm able to save you some headache.

It's real easy for me to check those, but I don't really do it for just anyone. It's usually just when a car has big warning signs. I hate scammers so much.

I messages you back you saved me a headache, I really appreciate you running the vin for me

 

[devin1986]

No problem. I'm not a dealer, but I have connections through a friend in the law field and autochecks, so I can usually find out quite a bit about cars, but I tend to only do so in situations where it looks like a shady deal.
