Year? Miles? Salvaged title?if it's at a junkyard, it's probably salvage title. If you plan to keep it, this shouldn't be an issue, but if you want it as an investment, stay away.
If it's front end damage, you may also want to think about replace the airbag module/sensors. they have kinetic switches in them, which can't be reset, even if the airbag didn't deplo.
As long as there isn't frame damage, a '04/05 MSM, would be cool toy to have. For $6k + 3k for parts and paint, i would.
