[QUOTE="Teal Terminator, post: 9415822, member: 26375"] Honestly I don't think the salvage title makes a bit of difference. Someone that wants the car to "collect" isn't going to pay a premium for this car anyway b/c it isn't original. And someone that wants to buy it because of its uniqueness generally isn't going to give a rats ass if it has a little sticker on the door jam that says "salvage title" b/c it should be obvious by looking at it that it was rebuilt from the ground up and there isn't anything "salvage" about it. You can still register and resell salvage title cars just like any other car. My current car and my last Mustang are/were both salvage title vehicles and there isn't a thing wrong with them. Bottom line is as long as they are repaired properly it doesn't much matter. And something else to consider is that it doesn't take much to "total" a 17 year old car (ie the insurance company is going to find it hard to justify any kind of body repair on a car that old). So it might just take replacing a fender, hood, front bumper, etc to make a car "road worthy" again. AND in some states, if you want to go through the hassle of it, you can have a DMV officer come out and re-designate a car's title to "rebuilt" or "OK" (different states title them different things). Just my humble opinion though. :beer: I'd buy this car without a moments hesitation. [/QUOTE]
