pretty shocking to me actually knowing now its a salvage.. IMO keep the car keep what you want and part out the rest. it might take awhile but it'll be worth it. if you could score a cheap decent clear titled car you'll have more monies for rebuild/swap/parts...ect. theres been some decent finds lately of decent SC's under $500 that were just waiting to be rescued.

haha, I have liability through state farm, the person that made the left turn in front of me who i hit's insurance was triple A, they're the one paying.
yeah this cars got a rap sheet, stolen and stripped in 1999, hasnt been recovered until 2002, been in a collision as well before since the cars been repainted explaing why my paint seemed to look pretty good.
i guess i am blessed to get this much and not get injured in the accident. I hit the car on the door and rear quarter panel, spun the car a whole 180*.

yeah man you're definitely coming up on this whole situation, knowing it's a salvage title. I'm very surprised they're giving you that much! In any case, I'm glad you're okay, and it's a bummer that this one is totalled, you were doing a good job on it. Just come back harder next time!

i traded my clean title LS400 for this car, i just had no clue it was going to affect me in the long run. Now i know what to expect though. Anywho, someone offered $800 for the car, I just called my insurance to make sure if i keep the car i get to keep my title status as rebuilt. they said yes so this would save me time and get me money back for the car.
