How much to fix this?
I saw this on Ebay and wondered if it is worth the time and money to fix? They want 12,995. I see a needing a new hood, fenders, bumper, grill, lights and steering wheel air bag. Is this considered a salvaged vehicle now?

It is a salvaged vehicle, as it is stated in the description.
If you can get it for 10 grand or close to that, I think it's a good buy. It does have low miles and it's an auto, so that's a plus. I'm sure you can get the whole front end used for around 1200. You just need to shop around a little, you can even get rs headlights and SS bumper. Like i said 13k is to much, but 10k is a good deal if they take that offer. Ive been buying salvage cars since I was 18 so don't be discouraged if people tell you that salvage cars are not worth it, The key is to buy it at the right price. Good luck

Zl1 front end and some Gary customs fenders and you will be winning. Not sure on the other stuff, looks fixable though!

If I had the money,that could potentially be a really cool project car with super low mileage.

I wonder if someone lost more than control of the car.

There could be un expected future issues due to the accident. A car is never the same after an accident.

Gonna need the fenders, probably ~800 a piece + paint Used set of RS Halos another 700 + the wiring needed Grille badging Big factor is labor if your not doing it yourself. Easily 10+hrs to put it back together at say ~100/hr I'd say min 5-6,000 on top. |
