looks like he ran into Superman, hope he's ok

when he says clean title, does that mean you can fix it, sell it and the new owner would never know it was totaled?

If the car was never reported to the insurance company technically it's still clean titled so if it was fixed and sold without ever being reported then it could remain clean titled


More money than its worth to fix that one though. Lots of welding and I'm sure the engine and trans are toasted.

I think the number is posted like that because of the craigslist rules. (you cant post phone numbers on the thread?)

Anyway yeah its going to need a lot more then a lip and airbags. For example...headlights or how about a new hood? Maybe a fender or two?

WOW....

i think the seller meant a tree is what he hit! :P looks like a perfect tree or telephone pole indent in the driver side front.

$3300 isn't so bad for that wreck. If anyone is building a rally or track car, there will be plenty of usable parts from the a-pillars back. depending on how the driveline faired, i bet everything from the transfer case back is fine. might even be an alright part out project for someone. haggle the guy down to $2500 and i'm sure you'd make your money back. Just too bad he didn't go sideways into the tree so the egine/tranny were salvageable, but given the photo it looks like they are scrap.

it's hard to see from the photos whether the a-pillars are fooked or not. If not, you could probably buy a front cut from a wrecking yard and cut this one at the pillars and weld the two together. have seen that done to several cars. Could probably do it all for $10k assuming the damage underneath isn't too bad or that there isn't serious structural damage after the a-pillars.

The number is posted like that so people can't spam you, like if your e-mail is written on there when you post something, you'll be getting viagra emails and what not for the next six months lol. Woldn't be a bad pick up for parts though.
