With that front end damage, if the engine is toast, I wouldn't even pay 8K for it. It looks like every body panel needs replaced.  Yeah, this is a nice project car.    :22yikes:

That was my first thought, too.

The first thing I thought is look at the hard front and rear hits. Now look how the passenger cabin stayed in tack and not crushed. Looks like the design did it's job to me!!   :2thumbs:
