well while searching ebay for salvage vehicles, like i usually do, i came across a 99 viggen (non vert) with a salvage title and unrepaired damage, considerable damage to the front drivers side. The bidding on that still has like 5 days to go and was at around 2900, Considering about an 6k repair cost(i didnt check the pics too closely though and thats my quick assumption) That car would go for about 8-10k with the salvage title once repaired. if that gives an accurate idea of the market, your friends 2001 vert with 70k would probably range around 12-14k, just about the BB value, but that would call for it to be 100% complete. If he cant afford the car, tell him to get it the last 5% completed and dump it as is, if he cant even afford a new car, dont bother trading it in and taking new payments(unless he trades it in for a cheaper car and the dealer will give him $ back(somehtign which just doesnt happen). If he sells it privately, he can pay off what he owes(or most of it, and then he can look for a used car he can afford.
