Carfax

If anyone needs any VIN numbers looked up this month, my parents just got a moth of unlimited reports so I'd be happy to get you one.

It doesn't show that my cougar was in an accident, but I know it had to be. It has a new radiator and front clip when I bought it.

heh.

"Grain of salt", of course.

Feb 12 2005, mine was officially a "Total Loss", due to the cost of repairing the bashed LR fender vs. the average price of a comparable model. Check is in the bank, still driving it.

Jan 22 2006, Carfax reported:

ACCIDENT CHECK
Total Loss Check (OK) No Severe Accidents Reported by a DMV
Other Accident Indicators (OK) No Accident Indicators Reported

They only show what they've been told.
Death awaits you all with nasty, big, pointy teeth.

We tried to look up my Bird on Carfax before I bought it but the previous owners wouldnt disclose any information about the car.  I may never know if something happened to my car. :P

yea, thats all it said.  My cougar didnt show any accidents but I know the guy that had it before me definately lost the front end.
