I haven't done a carfax yet but I assume this might shed some light on it too.
Also, does rebuilt status affect insurance rates?

Dont know about now, but anyone used to be able to get a dealer plate and guys that "flipped" cars often did.
It allows for a blanket insurance/registration coverage and allows test drives etc without having to get new registration every time he buys/sells a new vehicle.
I would ask him where he purchased this car and get it checked out as these vehicles are often obtained at auction and auction cars can be very sketchy at times.
