I find this hilarious:

"The damage is not very bad. The RF corner is pushed in and back about 2". It's a fairly easy fix if you have time. Unfortunately, we needed to have the car ready in 2 weeks and chose to build a new car instead of missing a race and repairing this car. This car needs a new front clip put on, and the lower RH cage tube needs to be pulled out. A new floor pan is not mandatory, but is recommended. "

It isn't very bad...yet it needs an entire new front clip. Not an easy repair. It isn't very bad...yet it they chose to build another seam welded race car instead of repairing this one. Riiight. Definately pass on this car. It has seen much better days.

i think you would have to cut the cage out of it just to fix it. then you would be at square one.

If it was worth fixing, they would keep it for a spare... Look at the last pic, the door and doorjamb area are toast too... That is what you call a total loss..
