    neither.
    They're both worse than my van, which is pretty sad.

    Why was the title salvaged? Collision? Flood damage?

    A salvaged title can be a very risky buy (or trade).

    If the damage were rear end collision, I'd say you're probably find but if front end, I would very weary.

    Take a mechanic you trust to go look at the car and give it a good inspection. I'm not talking about your buddy who "knows about cars" either, but a professional.

    If you don't have one, go to the Chevy dealership and proposition a mechanic there and that you'll give him $50 to do it.
