i'm considering a used car(92 vw), wanted to get it inspected by bcaa, but it is more than 15 years old, therefore they won't do it.
any recommended shop that would do this kind of inspection? i want to know the structural rigidity and overall mechanical condition.
the current owner/builder got this car at icbc auction, he said that it was a theft recovered vehicle, the interior was stripped.
he swapped a different engine in, got a different VIN with title is 'altered'.
checked the history of old VIN, it had some collision less than $3000, but the latest claim was total loss, but didn't disclose the amount. i guess that's why it was put on auction.
because the owner/builder claimed that it was a theft recovered vehicle, i wonder could the cost to replace the missing parts were higher than the value, that's why it was considered as total loss?
i expect an experienced bodyman is able to tell if a car was ever been in an serious accident, please correct me if i'm wrong.
any comment is appreciated. |
