Default OT Carfax?

Can one of you guys run a car fax on a van for me.

4T3ZF13C9YU187568

Trying to find out why it has a salvage title. I would think about buying a rebuild but not a flood car.

You are correct.

A search for "carfax" over the past few months would have given the answer.
This thread will be locked

www.carfax.com and $20.00 will get you a car fax.

I could have searched but you were so nice to give me the answer. Perhaps they will not lock it and lazy folks like me will read this one and see that it's not done anymore.

Back in the old days we did it all the time.

I guess it's a major infraction. I hope I don't get banned.

From a similar post on Saturday;


BY:86PACER
Read this:
Some time ago, someone must have tipped off Carfax, because they started to monitor this site for such requests and where cracking down on forum members offering checks on this site.

http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show....php?t=1430771


And from another thread also on Saturday;


Mr Mojo wrote;
Without trying to be too harsh, you broke two rules(well actually three-one is new).

It's in the wrong section, it's not a Corvette and Carfax has cracked down, so no more requests.

http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show....php?t=1430771

BTW, I must thank you, I've been dying to use the pic below.



They were both locked. Mr M just hasn't gotten to this one yet.

Well it's not a vette but I still have one and I said it was OT from the start.

I wonder how many posts this thread will get before it is locked.

You're ok, as long as no one posts this pic for you.

No you didn't at least not for a non C4 in a C4 section.

Rule always was, you post in the For Sale section, or if a non vette, it went to "Other Cars"

A simple visit to the Guidelines section, you would have found this:

I may be lazy, but you don't have to say it in public.

One other thing, if you have to put "OT" in the title, then it probably shouldn't be posted here, that's what the OT section is for.
