Message	Living in Florida, I assume you have heard about title-washing. Hell, I live in Canada and have knowledge of it. The point is - take the records with a grain of salt. I get the feeling that you're getting emotionally wrapped up in this car, and probably envision yourself driving it already. Look at it pragmatically and long term. Will you be happy knowing you may have paid a premium for a damaged car? Or will you wonder every single time you look at it, what it's past may have been. For me, it'd be the latter. -jb -=-=-=-=-= your brillant (n/m) - Zski (Generation Z) 17:36:48 06/17/04 I finshed up the girl scouts last night...mmmm! - Spee 06:19 PM 07/02/04 I think we can all agree on the fact that i can never be 'cool' - genic 11:12 PM 12/13/04 THE RADIATOR DOES NOT USE AIR FLOW TO COOL TEMPS!! - THEDUCK 10:07:40 03/30/08
