Cash for Clunkers Program
 

I happen to be looking at an website for salvage vehicles and ran into the section "Cash for Clunkers" to which I was amazed that there was 21 fox body Mustangs that qualified and I thought the group would be interested in 1 of the 21 that was on that list ! Can anyone read the DSO info to see where this car was from ???

Too small to tell. Can you contact the salvage company? Are they selling the car? I thought ALL of the 'cash for clunkers' cars were to be crushed. Since it's online, I assume they are selling it with a salvage title.

I hope whomever traded it in is happy with their Prius...:No no: :thumbsdown:

True. Crushed, shredded, or sold at salvage auction to one of the "authorized" (on the list) disposal companies to crush or shred. They can still sell parts from them (except for the engine), but not whole cars to the public.

Try to download some better pics....didn't realize they were so small guys !

DSO is 76-0112, which is for Denver. Anybody care to guess which agency that might be?

Colorado State Patrol??? If it is, that makes it more of a shame it's getting crushed.

dso 76 could be many different agencies.

colorado, nebraska, idaho, utah, etc.


my Idaho car is DSO 76. bucs are pictured here in tech section.

The VIN is 1FABP40E4KF261404

Does anybody with a CarFax account wanna run it to see where it was first used?

There was a salvage yard here near Kansas City that was buying CFC cars from dealers then turning around and selling them complete with running engines. They were profiled on the news awhile back.

At least someone has some common sense. I am amazed at some of the CFC cars I have seen at our local lots. I have seen a lot of nice Jeeps and even older, but nice Cadi's. 3 million in gas money saved and it only cost the tax payers 3 billion dollars....great program.:No no:

I agree with you, but it isn't common sense to violate federal law.

There was a great thread about this program on CC.com. It's really sad to see what happened to some great cars.

Would that not mean the car dealers are double dipping the system? Ahhhh car dealers.

Live hard. Sell Hard.

and don't forget that the dealers raised the prices of all the "qualifying" cars so that they made even more cash off the deal.

greedy a**h**es !!
