You're gonna have a hell of a time finding a salvaged evo. Most banks / insurance consider them such a high reselling car because of their initial markup, that they rarely make them salvaged. BTW this is the Ralliart section.

Are you serious?

I can't remember the site but there's a site that has all different salvaged cars for sale sort of like ebay auctions on salvage cars...

10-15k for a salvage Evo... Find parts for the right price and do most/all of the labor yourself... You get the idea. (And last I checked they were 10-15k, but that was awhile ago, probably less due to the decrease in value over the past few months thanks to the X)

I wouldn't count on them being less. All evos around the NW have gone up in value over the last 6 months because there are so few to be had since they quit making them.

As I said before, banks see them as such a valued car they hardly ever salvage them. So finding salvaged parts is going to be difficult, so I'd expect to be buying newer parts. Give it a shot though.
