Thought this was funny i Decided to share. http://autos.yahoo.com/articles/auto...N1c2VkLWNhcnM-,Any Camaro Wearing Death Metal Stickers There’s a lot of good to be said about old Camaros: They were available with small-block V-8s, massaged right they handle well, and they’re dirt-cheap. But it’s also true that these cars attract the sort of buyer who saves his greatest loyalty for death metal legends like Slayer, Necrophagia, and Morbid Angel. Vehicle care isn’t a top priority when you have three kids by four different women and a serious meth addiction. Caution: Beyond the band-loyalty stickers, look out for crumpled parole reports, old visitor’s passes from prominent penal institutions, and abandoned toothless children in the hatchback area. And if it smells like meth, it’s meth.

funny stuff. i have a friend who bought a Honda with a salvage title, matter fact hi didn't even know what salvage meant .lol oh well...now he does. hahaha i love it.

Old stoners, meth heads, etc..... Yeah I can sorta picture that!!! jk Hilarious

Don't forget hill top lover cars. The one's with the sticky seats and condom wrappers lodged between the seats.

That made me smile inside

Who was the idiot that wrote that

Insurance companies "slight" standards.
Today cars can be totaled because a bumper tap in a parking lot set off the air bags.
On a F body, just enough damage to require a new bumper and bumper shocks is enough to total it.
Granted most salvage titles are on very questionable cars, but today many cars are totaled for minor damage.

An insurance company looks at the wholesale bluebook value of a car. If the cost to fix it is estimated at more than about 2/3 of the book value, they will "total" it. Since most body shops that live on insurance work charge $5,000.00 or more just for paint to the insurance company, the possibility of getting any sort of repair to a 3rd Gen is slim to none if it is an insurance job.

Wow, some other issues with this article:

"but the truth is that, since the introduction of computerized ignitions and engine-control modules, an ever-increasing number of repairs have been creeping beyond the realm of home-mechanic care."

Why do people keep thinking that computerized cars are somehow untouchable? I've seen the death of demo derbies be linked to fuel injection, yet i've never even ran a carbed car in a derby. While I don't disagree that lack of service history is a red flag, saying that people can't do their own oil changes and routine maintnence due to computers is just showing that the writer knows nothing about cars themself.

"Caution: Magnets stick to steel. If a magnet won’t stick to the body of your average used sedan, some “alternative” body-repair tactics have been used."

This is insane for 2 reasons. 1) Tons of cars use fiberglass and plastic instead of metal. Run a magnet down a perfect Saturn from the 90's and you won't stick much of anywhere. 2) How much damage are you encouraging someone to do by sliding a magnet all over the car's body?

Funny article, but wow the writer is just shooting from the hip.
