if you live close you should check it out. the damage doesn't look too bad, but always should check for frame damage and find out how that damage occured before you purchase.

I think if you get it for a good price there's no reason not to buy it. Assume 6k in damage giving a 600 cushion considering his quote. If you can get the car for around 8-11k I would say buy it. It's not hardly modded at all so it probably wasn't abused. Find out how it was damaged, and it could be worth looking at.

you know my fender ding cost the insurance $4000, so I don't see how you could bend a frame on that damage.

Looks good, i would check to see if the roofline is good still.

Looks like a deal if the price is right.

if it was under 10,000 I would get it, it's a bargain.

as long as the frame isnt bent and your willing to put in the extra time and money under $15000 would be a good deal as long as the work is really around $4000 to fix it.

I personally would not buy another damaged car, had bad experiences. But if you are really interested check it out and I say no more then 10k because of the damages and plus it might have a dirty title afterwards.

unless you're in the bodyshop business and know what you're doing I would not touch it.
