Unfortunately, we all here at Yenko.Net know that the car sales industry, both classic and every day has a good portion of unscrupulous people involved in doing anything they can to make a buck; legal or illegal.
With the after effects of Ida, there will be literally hundreds of cars that were 100% water immersed. If those cars are judged to be total losses by their insurance companies, they will be sold to scrappers with a Salvage Title. Many states do not allow a ST vehicle to be repaired and put back on the road. But their are crooks who know how to turn a Salvage Title into a Regualr Title.
With the price of late model used cars going into orbit, if you are in the market for a used car in the next month or so, please use good judgement and due dilligence to make sure you do not get one of these cars.
Caveat Emptor . . . BUYER BEWARE!!
