@mrgot67 – hello,,,why does the car have a rebuilt and or salvage title ????? ...

I purchased the car from a dealer in Iowa and he purchased it from an individual in Georgia. I have contacted the guy in Georgia and he had purchased the car from a Mecum Auction. He is a body shop owner and he stated the car title in Georgia was changed due to the regulations in Georgia. That translated to a title in Iowa of Rebuilt TX and Colorado only had a salvage title designation. The car shows no signs of major damage and the Georgia owner did not repaint the car or do any body maintenance. It has been painted with a 2 stage system and the car does drive straight and had no rattles even with the top down.
