Depending on where you live(State), IF YOU KNOW OF SIGNIFICANT ITEMS THAT IMPACT THE ITEM, you must disclose it or you may be sued even if you list AS-IS. The fact you KNEW certain items were in bad repair does not keep you from being liable by claiming AS-IS. This is especially true in Texas. The best way is to disclose ALL items you feel are in bad repair. This does 2 things for you. 1. It keeps your from being liable after the sale. 2. MOST important, It keeps you and a potential buyer from wasting your and his time on the phone or in person when all the bad items are then discussed. Once the potential buyer KNOWS the problems, they can make a informed decision to buy that clunker. This limits your responses to only those that understand it is a clunker and are willing to purchase such a vehicle. Doug
