This a Copart buy? Chevy kinda looks fixable.
Yes, I have dealt with a ton of auction companies in the last 50 years or so but none match those folks for tacking on every little fee etc.
Like an $83 "internet biding fee" hell that is the only way you can bid, they charged me over 12% tax when the vehicle tax in TX is 6.25%, this of course I can get refunded if I jump through enough hoops and file for a refund from the state, I am sure that will be easy
It costs $100 a year for the privilege to bid.
You must have 10% cash deposit in your account.
A "gate fee"
An "environmental fee"
It just goes on and on.
They also cannot count, in the world I grew up in a day consisted of 24hrs, you have 3 "days" to remove the vehicle, my calculator says that is 72hrs
The auction ended at about 1 PM on Tue, I was there at 11 AM on Fri, 70hrs after the auction and had to pay a days "storage fee"
The frame is pretty tore up but I suppose one could get it road worthy again, interior is actually very nice, even has a Pioneer DVD panel in the dash, but considering its age and the rusty rockers I doubt it would be worth the effort., the air bags did deploy, that a few bucks
The bed and tail gate, doors etc are pretty nice, I think I can recoup some just selling what is left after pulling the drive train.
The rust in the rockers does not match the rest of the truck, off hand I would say maybe the whole family would jump in the truck while still wet with salt water, there is no rust in the rocker area of the bed and none I can see on the frame, strange..
I just hope the drive train is good, it is always a crap shoot...
