nicktcfcsb Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 (edited) I was going to build a Monster miata out of this car, it runs and drives has has almost all parts to put it back together, the title (that I am getting this week) will be a salvage as this was left at a body shop and the bill for the paint was never paid for, the owner of the shop applyed for title (so I think that makes it salvage by default) Clean little 5 speed car with lots of potental, I really wanted to drop in a 302 in the worse way. 1500.00 Maybe open to trade. http://i553.photobucket.com/albums/jj398/nicktcfcsb/haha012.jpg Edited February 26, 2009 by nicktcfcsb sp error Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iwashmycar Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 dang that is begging for a 302! are those bullet hole stickers on the wall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotarded1647545491 Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 I was the service manager in a dealership for 9 years. We took several cars on mechanics liens. If I remember correctly: If the vehicle has been forfeited under a mechanics lien, then it is simply listed as a transfer of title. Unless the original insurance company has listed the vehicle as totaled, there is no salvage tag assigned to the VIN. That car is begging for a Twin turbo rotary swap!

Guest Removed Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 that wont make it a salvage title... you will get a clean title unless it was totaled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hot_wire Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 How's the rust situation? Is that fresh paint? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clifford Automotive Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 Should be a clean title. Would fall under mechanics lien. Doesn't even have to really. If the car sat there long enough and the fees racked up on it, said shops just start to procedure to claim title. Would be real interested in the title situation later in the week.

coltboostin Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 I am a little confused, did YOU leave it at someone's body shop, do YOU have a body shop....? Will there be an issue with this title-as in sure, I pay you 1500, but you owe the body shop 1000... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TURBOED Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 I am a little confused, did YOU leave it at someone's body shop, do YOU have a body shop....? Will there be an issue with this title-as in sure, I pay you 1500, but you owe the body shop 1000... My take is that... 1) some broke-dick took it to a body shop, got it fixed and could not pay 2) body shop kept the car in payment for the bills 3) body shop sold to OP to recoup losses in body work 4) OP is selling car If this thing comes out with a clean title, this is a heck of a deal. Can you post more pics? And also details on any rust... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you post more pics? And also details on any rust... Correct, Just waiting on body shop owner to get title from bmv but I already have the car in my garage. looks like newer paint, no rust that I can see, just dirty, I have not picked up the soft top yet so I can not tell you condition of it, car has new plugs, fuel pump, and oil and runs and drives but I have not started it in a while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
