The best suggestion I can give you is to forget about this idea altogether. Buyingt any car at an auction requires extensive knowledge and experience and buying a wrecked car from an auction takes that risk and triples it.If you want to buy a wreck at an auction you needs to bring a highly experienced body man with you to accurately estimate the cost to repair it and even then you are still lacking the experience of what the car is worth.

NEVER buy a car at an auction without seeing and examining it closely. Don't bid anything online that hasn't been inspected.
