Clean Title Junked Carfax

Hello, I have an fd that I bought that has a clean title but unfortunately I did not check the carfax which shows it junked in another state. There is no recorded history of damage to the car and the car doesn't seem like it has ever been in an accident and runs without any problems. I'm wondering how this affects the value. Thanks

What's "vinfixer.com"?

Have you tried going to Carfax and getting the report from them?

Looks like the Indiana owner had a loan or mechanics lien that they didn't pay off when the car was sold to California, so Indiana marked the title? Maybe call Indiana DMV and try to see what's up.
