Rick,

Generally speaking, a salvage title will decrease value by about 25%
depending on the history of the vehicle.  More if the vehicle was issued a
salvage title due to a collision, less if it was issued a salvage title
because it was donated to a charity and sold at auction.  If you're paying
good money, it's important to find out the history of the vehicle.

Good Luck,

Jeff

I looked at the archives regarding buying a salvaged
title in CA. Does it need to be reinspected even
though it is currently registered as a salvage?
There is a 91 poptop W/E with 95K miles for $8K.
Is it me or does that sound pricey? Esp if resale is
lower on a salvage title.
Still looking,
Rick
