That is about what I was thinking. The carfax has it tainted along with the dipped wheels and steering wheel. Although I like the look of the chrome wheels.

What would you guys pay for this car?

If you were on the east coast I would buy it. Shipping will be $1000.

E-mailed Michigan State Police to try and get a report/...

^^^^ Your best bet is the NICB database or other source that could help you track down the theft report/insurance claim on the car. Better yet would be the previous owner info so you could possibly track down the body shop estimate/invoice paperwork that would show the replacement parts and any rep...

It is a nice car, but I have no way of knowing what was replaced back in 1994. Considering the stolen/stripped report made it into Carfax (and we all know the limitations of Carfax), I would guess a lot more than the steering wheel was stripped.

I don't want to rush it but I don't want to be without a car. I mean I have another vehicle but my wife might need to use it. I can probably use it for a short time or look at getting a beater car but I would rather not... I may have about a week until I ship out my car.
