I used to work for a salvage yard, and know dealers that go to dealer only auctions all the time. If the guy you know will do it, he can buy the truck and sell it to you for whatever he wants. Salvage yards will buy or sell anything they can make money on. It would help when you go to buy it if you know how much the yard paid for the truck. Then at least you can tell them you know what they gave for it and how much they are making on the deal. My experience with most salvage yards is CASH MONEY talks real loud. You will probably end up with a salvage title with the truck, which won't affect your ability to liscense it, as long as the cab numbers match the title, but it may hurt the resale because alot of people are scared of a salvage title due to being mis-informed.
