It's a good project car. You are saving about 10-12K

I'm gonna give it some thought. I know I'm taking a chance because it may not be here later, but I gotta think about it. I'll get back with you soon though

Also you would be spending at least 24k on a supra and then adding work, this would still come out cheaper.

rreign, sent you a PM

what needs to be done to get it back on a street? also was there a frame damage?

Insurance companies don't total cars (salvage) for $3K worth of replacement parts...Think about it.

you're already grumpy! :)

standby and I'll get a more detailed response from the seller about the list of what's wrong / was wrong... I know that the engine wiring harness is being replaced above / beyond the initial list of damage that was repaired and my guess would be that the damaged engine wiring harness was the rationale for the insurance company declaring it "a total loss"... I can tell you from experience that getting that part is not cheap and not easy - I replaced the main harness on my car... In any event, the wiring harness is being fixed now

But standby and I'll get input from the seller to resolve the concern that Modshack brings up

RAIN, as for frame damage, I asked that question directly and was told there is zero frame damage - frame is factory spec... any buyer will want to verify all these things through inspection

this man has a point

I never said the insurance company totaled it for $3K of replacement parts, Modshack is making an assumption there... and as I explained in post #22, the engine wiring harness was damaged and is being repaired... my guess is that is why the insurance company didn't want to mess with the car... getting one of those harnesses - I know from personal experience - can take 3 months to order from Nissan, and costs nearly $2K for just the part

update from seller:

"It needs an ecu (which I just ordered) the wiring harness so that the lights and a/c will work. the part of the wiring harness for the engine is just fine. Needs a drivers side inner tie rod end a condensor and a radiator. Other than that a detail and its a perfect street car. No frame damage!"

So, need a buyer! :)

I never want to order another wiring harness again

haha, yeah that was not fun!

Update... car is completely fixed and will be priced out the door at $21.5

will this car be able to registered in va?

I mangled a s2000 when I was younger, and about 6 months later I got a phone call, A guy got it from an auction for dirt cheap, and fixed it up. He had found my info on a bill that was left in the glove box... All he needed was a key, which I had for him... The car was spotless, drove out to queens and the key was litteraly his last step, he started it and took me for a ride , thing rode just like it did prior to the accident..

His total amount spent was half of what I paid for the car... so it worked for him.

Pending the quality of work, I wouldnt be too scard of this car.
