Yes, junk car buyers will buy a car with frame damage. Even damaged, the frame still has value. Offers might be reduced, but there still is value in the engine, transmission, catalytic converter, and undamaged parts including wheels and tires.
How frame damage affects value:
- Eliminates resale potential as a driveable vehicle
- Components attached to the frame could be damaged
- Reduces value by 30% to 60%
- Minor bends vs. major structural failure
Make sure you describe the damage accurately when getting your quotes. Mention which parts of the frame are bent or broken, if the vehicle was in an accident, and any other damage. Photos can also be very helpful.
Junk Car Medics buys frame-damaged vehicles throughout the country. Accident damage, structural rust, doesn't matter. Your car has value regardless of how bad the frame is.
