Just me, but I wouldnt TOUCH a car with that bad of a front end impact. You never know what else could have been thrown out of wack, that looks like it was a pretty good hit ---

Theres gotta be a reason he’s not finishing that car and trying to trade it for a Jetta thats a year older and has more miles. I think its more fucked than it appears. ---

Hittign a pole that hard to stuff that front end in that much… I would bet the impact was transfered into the motor mounts, and maybe even the firewall. Could have bowed the frame horns in and twisted them up. Its really isnt hard to cut old junk off and fit a new core support and fenders on something, even if its still bent to shit under neath. have him put it on a laser alignment rack and see how straight it really is. ---

Btw a salvage exam has little or nothing to do with making sure a car is roadworthy. Its mainly to check if any stolen parts were used in the repair. But with that fun fact out of the way like everyone else has said. With an impact like that I wouldn’t go anywhere near that car. ---
