Good buy? Or should I pass?

Postby denraweb » Sat Feb 06, 2010 6:54 pm

Ok so I saw this ad from a local towyard. Thought it might be a good deal, but not sure. Let me know what you guys think based on the info given.

1990 Mighty max
-Salvage Title (dont know why)
-5 speed
-tagged til may
-doors shaved
-chrome 17" caddy escalade wheels
-only bagged in the front. Lowered in back. Looks to have nitrogen?

$1900 and it is a lien sale...
I was thinking about lowballing and offer about $1000...

Just think.....the original owner of this truck probably got busted for a dui or something of that nature and the towing company probably charged 4 or 5 hundred bucks to recover the truck. On top of this shit.....the tow company probably charged $60 bucks a day for outside storage. This shit adds up!

Yup, I had to get my car out of the impound not too long ago. I went through a DUI checkpoint with a suspended license. It was close to $600 for everything. I think it was $541 to be exact or somewhere close to that. But that's not my issue with this truck. Whoever owned it got in trouble and couldn't afford to get it out of the impound. Now I wanna try to get it and finish it up.

Yea I plan to do a CarFax. If it's salvaged, the reason will be on CarFax.
