Rick,
Nice. What is your experience with the "ready to fix" outfit? Is it worth the $15? Can a normal person come across a good deal you actually could buy and do something with, or do you have to be a body shop expert or something? Thanks for any info.

Most of the cars require major suspension, engine or body work to repair. Then you end up with a salvagfe title car. Not worth it 90% of the time.

They do sell cars outright as well, this being one case.

I have not seen that service. How long does the $15 keep you active? This could be a great way to find donor cars for those projects that need... a 3.6 for example.

The cars there seem to be overpriced. A few I looked at, if you fixed them to as-new condition would probably end up costing about the same as if you bought it off the street... NOT including labor...

DIdn't see any spectacular deals, but who knows?
