Found an interesting site that has some "wrecked" and salvageable model ts for sale on auction...
The lowest is 5900 bit most are sold on minimum bid...
One has a mechanical issue and one has front issues, the others are unknown

Just a 20 year old who listens to 40 year old music, works on 75 year old airplanes and drives 100 year old cars.
The past is only simple because hindsight is 20/20.

Interesting. I wonder how many of the "Unknown" damages are flood related.

Yeah I was thinking that too. It's either that or the people at the auction yard are baffled by how the T Works

Looks like an agent for Copart, you can buy thru them without signing up and paying for a Copart subscription. Copart makes you pay now. Looks like they have a free subscribe? Probably insurance company totals, would come with a salvage certificate.
Wonder what happened to the fordor with both wheel broken off? are the rims in the back?
They have a category for flood vehicles so probably not flood damage on those mechanical damage ones.
Thanks for sharing!
