Default Salvage 930

I have an opportunity to buy a 87 930 that was issued a salvaged title back in 1995. Original owner car, drivers condition. 82k miles. What should I pay for a car like this?

I have a nice 1987 Turbo with around 70K miles and I was offered $90K to sell. I did not sell because I don't want to sell. But $90K is probably a fair price for my car.

This one; does not look as nice (given there is only one picture), higher mileage, salvage title, no other information on anything --> My guess: $35K-$40K

Figure on $10-15k to get car right maybe more, you'll have a $50-60k when done

Is this from you own inspection or from another party?

If he bought it from the insurance company that show on the title?

This is from my own inspection. I am miss spoken about the one owner. I purchased it from the 2nd owner who had a perpetual mumble/drunken stumble ...lol. I am very excited to have scored this car! While waiting for the tow last night, he asked me what I will name her, and he always called her Stephanie. I see no reason to change her name. Thank you guys for the advice.

It looks like you could end up with a good driver car without a huge amount of $ into it - not a bad deal! You'll be driving the crap out of yours instead of worrying about what it's worth at Barrett Jackson.
