To much damage my friend. Not worth it. May be better off spending 10 grand on a used 350Z.

He probably wouldn't break even after spending $10G's on that turd bucket and then spending all that time and effort to part it out. That is what Junk yards are for :tup:

Really? is that sh/t or blood in the drivers seat? in pic 15?

dont buy it . because you will lose alot of money just to repair it so it is better to buy a second hand Z without accidents.

I saw a bunch of zs that looked like this. Not worth it at all. If it had just rear damage. Maybe. But risky. But front an rear just makes the price in repairs skyrocket. Took me 3 months to find mine after tons of auction searching Plus mine didn't look that bad in the rear. And I paid around 22 total after all the paperwork and crap.

Don't bother. It looks like the shell is worthless... You are basically paying 10k for an engine which probably has problems now after the accident. Plus, 10k for the engine is a bit too steep. Mind as well buy a old 350 shell and drop a Lsx motor.

That car is already selling for way more than it should. Trust me, it's totaled. That car has taken it from the front and the rear. Just start doing the math. Airbags popped = $6k. Each headlight and tail light is $1000, New hood, quarter panels, front and rear fascia = ~$4,000 with painting. There is no radiator or core support even on the car anymore. The rear shell is completely deformed. You'll buy a new 370 by the time you fix that car.

My favorite part of it all is in the picture...

Does that mean it was done on purpose?

Slight oversight.

It was probably just a bloody $hit. Happens sometimes after eating bad Chinese food.

Looking through the pics, this emphasizes a little problem with our Zs. The front end collision beam is too damn low. Look at the later pics and you'll see the styrofoam insert for the beam is perfect. Then look at the early pics and you'll see a crumpled hood. The cars are so low that hitting someone's bumper means hitting it with the top of your radiator core. That's why this guy's radiator is nowhere to be found.
