How much do totaled jeeps go for? Something that doesn’t have a ton of damage. I’m not looking for something that’s been smashed completely and I’m not looking for a salvage title that’s been repaired.
It’s hard to find the sold for price online
 
Copart.com

Unfortunately they don't tell you what they sold for only what they are selling for as bids go. I watched a totaled but drivable Rubicon get to $10,000 before I stopped watching.

I don't think there is a "going rate" for totaled jeeps, because every case is so different. Basically if you wanted to know what a good price is, you would estimate what it would be worth in restored condition and subtract how much you think it would cost to get there. Hard to do if you don't know what you are looking at and even experienced buyers can get burned sometimes. Copart will tell you if it has a salvage title.

I see you’re from Gallatin, I watched a pretty messed up TJ Sahara go for like 8k in Lebanon last year. If you’re just looking for parts some undeliverable ones will have good prices on parts.

does salvaged really matter if a vin check will show it's been totaled out by an ins. co. anyway?
 
I'm just curious. There are a few things that I would pull from the right jeep like the A/C and an automatic transmission. Probably cheaper to just pull those parts separately. May be easier to just buy a second TJ and swap the parts off of my jeep that I want to keep.
