Although shops ask for your vin number for repairs and say it will show up but it didn't in my case. Still I think its good to know if there was flood damage or once salvaged.
If I wasn't going through the insurance to get it repair, I would sell it right away after it was fixed and buy a similar model. No matter how good the mechanic or body shop is, it's not going to run as it did when it came off the assembly line. You pay insurance all your life, now when something happens it's time for it to be used.
