:?i bought car under impression nothing was wrong, didnt know had salvage title until too late. car interior, body and appearance was excellent. had 202,000mls. immediately had to replace front lower control arm bushings, left side ball joint, catalytic converter, headlightbulbs sparkplugs, oilchange, tires, and after caylitic converter was replaced was driving to get o2 sensors, no more than20miles later the fuel pump apparently caused fire while i was in parts store buying sensors. now it is siting in transmission shop back lot since july with fire,smoke,water damage to interior. the engine and rest of car is still in such good condition if i had means id just put motor in new body rather than rewire and replace all upholstery and interior basically. does anyone know what it would could even be worth or by best options? please help this was mine and wifes first car after we married and had our twins.
