Subject:      Salvage title
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

In the immortal words of Forest Gump, life is like a
box of chocolates... you never know what your gonna
get...


The reclemation of a vehicle is only as good as the
person doing the work.  I grew up in a restoration
shop and the fact is in most cases you are buying
something that someone wants to make a quick buck on.


My dad still gets spun up when talking about how this
is and that people don't want to spend the money to do
the job correctly, yet will turn around and sell it as
"good as new" to someone that doesn't know any better.


Personally, unless I do the work myself I wouldn't
touch a salvage titled vehicle, but that's just me.


Brian
