In PA, the lemon law still has provisions for salvage vehicles.

I helped a friend of mine make a deal on a reconstructed Eclipse, and we paid just about $7k for the car (lots of aftermarket stuff). The person we bought the car from guaranteed that it could be inspected as it sat, and after 3 inspection trips, the bill was over $10k for repairs (from shops and dealers) to make it street legal.

We took the kid to court, and ended up keeping the car, and he paid back the $7k penny for penny.

I'd like to think that people might open their eyes at some point... instead, I find it more and more likely that I'll just close mine.
