I used to make a lot of money on salvaged cars. Navy guys bought the hell out of them because "They looked and felt good" and allowed them to get into a car they really couldn't afford. Then the little stuff would start popping up. Shorted wires that ended in replacing headlight ballast, a trailing arm that was never replaced, but should have been and now tires and bearing are wearing out well before they should, water leaks in the first rain because the frame was straightened, but the door gasket wasn't replaced because it looked okay. Honestly if it's not a track car I'd stay away from it. We aren't talking about a 1 of 1 Ferrari that you'll only have a chance to purchase with a salvaged title. Wait a little bit let your pennies rub together and make more pennies that grow into dimes and get one with a clean title.
