Secrets on Buying Salvaged / Rebuilt Vehicles!

Here are some Tips from a Salvage Dealer :) to all potential costumers, If your thinking about buying salvage here are a few tips to make sure your not being cheated :1. First of all, you must understand that a salvaged vehicle will NEVER...EVER be as good as it was before the accident so PLEASE do NOT expect a perfect vehicle as these vehicles are far from it, in most cases you might end up replacing some parts on the vehicle.2. Try to get as much history on the vehicle as you can so ask as many questions as you can from the dealer about the vehicle before repair. Be sure to ask the Dealer for a picture of the vehicle BEFORE REPAIR, all Salvaged dealers must take a photo of a vehicle with the damage clearly visible for title purposes and they almost ALWAYS keep the photo in record, so go ahead and have a mechanic give you a rough estimate on what was replaced on the vehicle.3. Some states do not issue Salvaged/Rebuilt Titles and usually a Clear Title is issued(ex: Florida). so MAKE SURE YOU CHECK THE VEHICLE HISTORY REPORT.4. If your looking a car with previous history of Flood.... I HIGHLY suggest you back away. Water (especially Salt Water) are HIGHLY corrosive...they will literally make a vehicle useless. Problems could range from simple flashing of warning lights to geplete replacement of engine
