If there are any people on here who sell car insurance and any car salesman’s please PM me. I have a question about a vehicle I am looking at. Or if you have capabilities to run a vin number. Thank you!
So heres the deal. It was a stolen and recovered vehicle. Priced very well. It was then bought by a guy who took all the correct steps to get a new vin, it has a new title. It's a clean and clear Missouri title he has it in hand. He went through highway patrol and the DMV to get all the steps corrected. Its a very nice pickup and I want to make sure I won't face any issues. I want to have vin checked to make sure that it wasn't completely trashed. I did a small search on vin. No reported accidents. Only 1 reported theft. He is able to fully insure it though with full coverage. I have a guy checking vin for me into detail. An attorney told me that I won't face any issues after he saw the paperwork and stuff. It's just a big gamble I feel. I am not worried about resale value or anything. It will just be cheaper to drive than my diesel. I just want 100 percent confirmation I won't have issues with insurance. Also I am wanting to sell my truck. I have been told if I trade it then I will only pay the sales tax on the difference. If I sell my truck and then go buy this truck I wont get the credit for sales tax correct?Theres online car fax available.
Assuming its a private sale .
Otherwise any dealership has that ability.
I like to see the original owners manual in them . That shows they cared a little about the vehicle . Service records as well .
Are you concerned its a rebuilt / salvage ?
It has a new vin and new title I believe.Who cares if it was trashed as long as it was fixed properly? You need to buy it cheap enough so you can sell it cheap. Most buyers will look at it as damaged goods and reject without looking. Is the title stamped Rebuilt?
That truthfully isnt a problem with me. I mean its got around 125k miles on it so it's still got some life in it.Yes can't buy with expecting to resale . Got to drive till the wheels fall off .
