Unibody's crunched hard...look at the front-right corner of the car.

Who uses stocks seats in a track car?
I guess the same people who buy $500 suspensions?

Exactly. Once the unibody is tweeked, the repair cost goes way up, the value of the wrecked vehicle goes way down.
On the contrary, a minor amount of time on a frame rack and she might be fine. Seems odd to total a car with so little damage....although it is probably 6-8K repair cost, anyways with the airbag, et al.
In reply to 1966stang:
If the unibody is tweeked, then it is a complete unknown. You don't know it's a "minor" amount of time on a frame rack until it's on the frame rack. That makes the car worth a lot less.
True. it probably is only a good deal to a guy who owns a body shop with a rack and is willing to invest time in it. Biggest problem is that it will always be a salvage title car. So even if you could buy it for eight K and fix it for seven K, you would still be upside down.
All of these things are true. I suspect that this one will either go to an idiot or someone wanting to do what I suggested.
