Default S2000 Certificate of Destruction

Seems a shame & not totally understood why this S2000 will never be driven. Certificate of Destruction is usually issued to a flood damage car or one deemed unsafe/not repairable.

Probably fine for track use though with some modifications and inspection.

Rear bumper has damage, although it isn't bad

But you can't see the engine/drive train condition. Who's to say the oil pan didn't break and starve the engine or some other mechanical failure?

Certificate of Destruction (C&D)is something that FL puts on a lot of there cars even if there is not much damage. There is only a few states you can have a C&D changed over into a salvage then into rebuilt and my state is one of them.

My S2000 is a C&D that I drive bought out of FL was a theft never been wrecked seats, cluster and headlights taken and top cut. The car has a KY rebuilt Title that has a Red ban around the tile and can not be retitled back in FL

I buy C&D out of FL all the time it's a great thing for me
