The reason for this thread, is the auction ends in 15hrs and I just NOW came across it.

Here is what the owner says
"The only mechanical issue that I know of is that right front alignment camber is -0.1 degree out of specified range."

"Don't have any before repair pictures. Replaced parts are front fenders, headlights, front bumper cover, windshield, hood, both front lower control arms, drivers door, mirror and rocker panel, passengers door skin. The front, in front of the front crossmember, was swayed 1-2 inches to the drivers side."




Those gaps where the fender mounts makes me nervous, along with the cracks/cuts in the metal. Would that effect my rigidity and also cause rattles?




Oh wow, look at that gap difference! Are hoods adjustable to the left and right or could this be too far tweaked to the drivers side and be throwing off the alignment?


Booo

Thanks for your help guys, any input/thought/advice is welcome.

 

buying a salvaged car is one thing... but buying one over the internet (without being able to drive it or inspect it 1st-hand) is another....

run away

 

Please don't bid on that unless it is insanely cheap. I mean "I could have purchased this car or a two dollar hooker" cheap. Salvaged car > diseased hooker, any day of the week.

 

All the crinkled metal inside the engine compartment indicates that the repairs were not professional. I would expect the rest to be the same. Don't walk away, RUN !!!

 

I wouldn't dare touch that. Stay away at all costs.

 

I wouldn't buy it.

 

RUN, FORREST, RUN!

 

That doesnt look good at all.......If you were to buy it, repaint it black so you cannot see those gap differences!!!!!! ahaha

 

oh, I mean



Seriously, don't do it! Don't let emotion get in the way.

 

Biased are we?



j/k Good point about the gaps though, but how do you hide all the other problems he's probably gonna have?
