These past few weeks, we’ve been examining salvage auto auctions—what they are, who can participate in them (spoiler alert: everyone can bid on a salvage car) and how to be confident in your bids. Here’s a quick reference guide to everything we’ve discussed so you can catch up and be a salvage auction pro in no time.

This blog is perfect for salvage car beginners and gives them a general introduction to salvage vehicles and why bidding on one may be the right choice. Think you might be interested in a salvage vehicle? Check out this blog first.
