Front frame damage can be repaired by being "pulled" to straighten or the front clip can be replaced. I would talk to a good auto body repair shop and have pictures to show them. All of my purchases were repaired already. If your serious, call David at Hilltop motors in Columbia KY. He does this for a living and is the best. 270-384-1562

thats true most states will not insure salvaged or rebuilt titles with full coverage and that a biggie for me. How much are you buying this car for. Say you buy it for 6k and put 10k into fixing it. your better off just finding one without a salvage/rebuilt title because I have seen them for dirt cheap. In fact I looked on craigs list and there is a orange one in austin,tx selling for only 13,800. I believe its an 03 with 53,000 with a nismo body kit. Ultimately the decision is up to you. If you are confident that you can repair the car to great condition and you get it for cheap go for it.

Receipts for parts and labor. A court house official has to inspect it and they'll give you paperwork to send in to get your rebuilt title. After that you get the rebuilt title back and go and register it.

i could see buying one that is still wrecked and fixing it cause then the damage hasn't been touched and you can tell exactly what is wrong with it. but buying one already fixed??? the add may say it was a theft recovery but id be willing to bet most of the ones that say that are not, especially with a car that is worth over 15,000 in good shape

Im rebuilding a 350z that had front end frame damage for drifting. Everything so far ive invested 5 grand and had the frame pulled and cut and welded for 1300. Drives fine and engine has no flaws. Only problem is i cant figure out is why my gauges wont register rpm,mph,gas, and water temp.. You take a risk when you buy wrecked things.
