There are a couple on Copart right now with VERY MINIMAL damage. Either the front fascia needs to be replaced with a door ding.

One that has a bunch of dings and scratches.

Hell there's even one with no damage showing, just "damage history" and owner refused the repair for it being totaled.

Or even one that was just vandalized in CA with spray paint all over.

Those I would consider buying and then driving it till it died.

But if it has ANY form of structural damage done to it, any air bags deployed etc. Then no I wouldn't touch those even to save money. I wouldn't jeopardize safety of myself and my son to save a few bucks.

Depending on what I would do really depends on the Chevrolet Dealership.
If it passed it's Vehicle inspection (minus small dings and paint etc.) I would buy it.. If not buy a chassis off of ebay for 8k, and then swap EVERYTHING that is not busted over to the new chassis. (not sure if they come with a VIN though
