If you need to ask this question then you probably don't have the necessary skills/knowledge to repair this properly. The front/rear need massive work. My suggestion would be to re-think your budget 370 purchase.

take it from me.. do not try and do a rebuild.. In 2005 i bought a 350z that just had what looked to be some minor front drivers side damage. I got it for 5k which I thought was a great deal considering it was a 2004 with 10k miles. To make a long story short it took another 13k to get it road worthy when I had only planed to spend 5k. Then after a yr of piecing it togather I sold it for a loss.. If your looking for a cheap Z find one that someone else rebuilt and lost their asss on.

ya car needs at least another 12k of body work.

F**K i wouldn't buy that!!! looks like Sh*t

have the car for 22k not bad.

Now, tell us how you really feel?

please share.

I'm guessing 15k. don't buy it save your money for a good down payment! and look at the saving a salvage post started by carvalho360. http://www.the370z.com/nissan-370z-g...g-salvage.html

yeah dont bother... looks like it has a 95 inch front to back instead of the usual 100 or whatever.. lmao RUNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What do you think it would sell for with a salvage title? I promise it won't come close to 22K.

Also, you are assuming no frame damage, etc. was done.

RUN OP! RUN!

Besides, noone is going to finance that crap. You would have to buy it outright. Then you would have to front all the money for repairs. Basically, you are saying you have $22K to burn in-hand. Why don't you put that down on a new 2011 and have a very small note. Or even a used 2010 with even less miles. So much better options around on which to spend your hard-earned $22K.

what body kit is that?:bowrofl:

Just about everything lol

Surely just a fool and their money would suffice?

The reason they are selling it like this is because they know they will lose money on the repair. Walk away!

Ok guys thank you for all your help let's see what other people think ^_^

Don't do it, you will end up spending over 10-15K on repairs. And even when its all done, it will probably not ride the same. Just buy a used Z with no problems it will cost you just as much as this project with a lot less hassle.

At least it was not in an accident :

Reported accidents: 0.:bowrofl:

I did not repair my 300ZX tt with far less damage, for fear of the unknown damage. OP You are brave to consider repairing this mess.

:bowrofl:

Maybe if it was FREE!!!!!!!!

How is this car not a write off?

bad idea

If I had the cash I would buy that car and turn it into a buggy.

I don't know...
I might consider it, with this guy's help:

If I had the cash.. I turn it into a compact Z... oh wait.... it is compactizedated already :bowrofl:

All you need is a sawzall and some welding skill and you can turn it into some crazy buggy thing. :icon17:

Or a track car, even. Just fab your own body.

There are people who specialize in rebuilding salvage vehicles, and they usually buy them at an insurance auction. If someone who rebuilds these thought this was a good enough deal it would have already been sold.

:iagree:

man you guys are nuts. this will buff right out! id buy it..... ok totally joking.

What about buying it and then selling the parts by themselves like the engine, gearbox, differential, axles, wheels, windshield, doors, mirrors, battery, driveshaft, etc. Would the op be able to make a profit?

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

ooo demolition derby!!!!!! demolition derby!@!!!!! demolition derby!!!!!!!!!!!

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:

Oooooorrrrrrrrrrrrr a really really fun demolition derby

True, if he had a money tree in his backyard :rock: HAHA!

psht, $10,00 of fun!

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.
