Holy crap. How many different forums did you post this in? Try craigslist next.


A clean carfax is absolutely worthless.

A prepurchase inspection by a competent and observant technician is invaluable.

All original body panels have a vin sticker on them when they leave factory....look for them.

And...Inspect, Inspect, Inspect as noted

i dont think anyone here can tell you for FREE if the car has accidents or not. You have to buy those reports from carfax or carproof or some other reporting sites
