That was the case with my old 240SX, had a salvage title so I had a mechanic friend inspect it...no crash, fire or flood damage, after a bit of hunting it turned out to have been stolen in Boston and recovered after the payout.

Now, giving the original owner right of first refusal, for the cost of the original payout (adjusted, obv.), would seem to be the fair thing to do.
