TurboNova Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 Nah they have no list but thre is usually about 110 cars there and they start bid at scrap price. Some go for scrap price and they aren't bad cars just need tires or some little thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted August 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 I have been to a couple dozen impound auctions and bought 9 cars at the last one I went to( all junk). I stopped going about the time all the cab drivers starting showing up trying to turn everything into a cab and bidding up the cars alot more than they were worth.

Alty941647545539 Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 VOA Auction every Saturday. List is up on the web site usually by Wens or Thurs. http://www.voago.org/Our-Services/Auto-Auction Sometimes good finds. I've bought 4-5 cars there for other people or resale. Usually all need a little bit of minor work (tires, tune up, ect). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this weekend is an auction, but yes, every little lot owner and curbstoner is there trying to get something to flip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
