Should I buy this Evo?

So I got a question cause i dont know crap about cars!! I want to buy this evo 9 for sale. It needs two doors front and rear from the driver side. I was wondering if any other regular Lancer doors can fit on the 2006 evo 9 model??? Also I think itll need a new beam cause it looks pretty crashed.. is that possible to cut and weld on from any other lancer like a es or a ralliart onto the evo 9?? Or should it be cut from a different evo 9 and welded on the one I currently want to buy?

Pass on this, if you really want an evo save your money and buy one in good condition (or not smashed at least). Trust me, I bought my evo salvaged in 2005 and there is no question in my mind that its not worth it, unless you are building a race car and/or are extremely knowledgeable in automotive repair.

Front doors fit, rear doors are completely different because of the wider rear fenders

And it may need to.be placed on a frame rack.to make the car straight again.
unless you're getting it for about $1000, I'd pass.

If you’re asking these questions you need to pass on this car.
