Default Re: Coparts.com? restoration questions

These are Hurricane Sandy cars. Stay away. This is salt water contamination. All wiring is contaminated and all the sheetmetal will be rustng from the inside out, especially in areas that you could never get to, to repair. Anything metal will be affected. There is nothing that can be done to stop the eventual rust from being submerged in salt water.

The Vehiicle Identification Numbers (VIN) from these cars will be on file with insurance companies forever. Even if you were able to get a salvage title washed through another state's title system and get a "clean" title, you will never be able to get insurance on the car because the car's VIN is redflagged in the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) database as a flood totalled car.
