If you dispute something on your credit report can you get a credit score while it's in investigation?
Yes, you can always get a credit score since it is simply an algorithm that is run against a "snap-shot" of your credit report. Disputes don't show up on your credit report - only the results so the resulting score won't be affected by the dispute until after it has been resolved.

Your credit score is only affected if (1) your name is on the loan and (2) you are a primary borrower.

What are ways to raise a very low credit score?
The best ways to raise a low credit score are to eliminate your use of credit and to pay all your bills on time. Time and effort is the only thing that will cure this for you. You obviously need the car now, so you might want to borrow the money from a family member until you fix your credit.
Can you purchase a vehicle when filed bankruptcy?
Not usually in a c. 7, but with court approval, you can in a c. 13. The new debt will have to fit within the plan and your expenses. After discharge, you can try, but the current credit market makes it unlikely. Look for a cheap car you can pay cash for until credit is unfrozen under Obama.
How does the credit score affect your buying power?
If your credit score is low (perhaps through defaulting on previous loan agreements or failing to pay credit cards on time) - it signifies to anyone who searches your credit history - that you are a high risk. People who are high risk debtors are more likely to be refused future credit (or only offered high interest credit) - until they can prove they are more disciplined in managing their debts.
If you transfer all your credit card balance into your personal line of credit is it going to lower your credit score?
Probably slightly but just for a few months. Assuming you keep the credit card account open. I Factors that make score go up: overall you'll have more available credit so your debt to credit ratio will be lower because your credit card will now have 0 balance and therefore the entire limit of credit. Factors to make score go down: you are opening a new loan account and new accounts always hurt your score for the first few months. Additionally, you will be maxed out on the loan (technically the limit on a loan is the amount they lend you) until you start paying it down. A good mix of loan and credit cards is good for your score in the long run though.
