There are bad resto companies out there, strictly flipping cars, so the cheapest parts are used.

It is buyer beware, absolutely no guarantees tied to any of the cars, unless they are brand new, with factory warranty, such as a Dodge Hellcat being flipped.

If you are still interested, attend one of these auctions as a non bidder to observe what is going on during an auction.
