Default How Much Would It Cost To Fix This Type Of Damage? **Pics**

There is a local shop around my way selling this car for $2000......is this a good buy? Just wondering how much it would be to fix this kind of damage. It does have 200k miles though......what are your thoughts?

not worth it at all you are better off buying a older import for $2,000 then trying to fix that pile of parts.

Def at least $3k, upprt portion of the radiator support, upper rail and apron need replacement, new hood, blend the left fender, new right fender.....yeah do you have collision coverage? You do have moderate structural damages, I would take on fixing this myself if I were you.

Not worth fixing as stated it has some damage were the motor mount is.if it was just outside like fender bumper hood light you can get tat rather cheap but there alot more damage inside and can even be worse when you do the tear down.for parts you might be able to make some cash of it

Not worth it. Did the airbags deploy? Definitely not worth it then. Even if they didn't deploy, there's bound to be a lot of stuff that you're not seeing.

Still be nice to see a gen1 not go to waste. You could part it out and make more than 500, if that were the sale price...


I know a guy that wants a rear bumper.

There is a guy that buys these and fixes them, mostly all front end damage, most look worse than that. he averages 4 grand on one with a decent front impact. So at that, your in it 6 grand, and still has a ____load of miles. 2 grand more will get you one with half the miles and no salvaged title. I'd pick it up for a grand or less for parts and an xB trailer.
