I personally could care less about the damage that was done to the vehicle. You can get what should be a totaled vehicle fixed without it ever getting a salvage title.

Once the title is salvage, it kills resale. The word salvage scares most people away. A lot of financing companies won't let you use a salvage title as collateral meaning you might need to take out a personal loan rather than an auto loan.

I just don't see the car that this guy is looking at being worth anywhere near the asking price with the salvage title and the condition it's in.
