to :SNSign:

It would be worth nothing posted in 5.0 Tech, when it should be in 94-95 Talk.

Got any pics of it? That would better help gauge its value.

Aside from missing a side skirt and having a few scrapes that I can see, it doesn't look bad. Is that driver's side rocker panel pushed in some, too? I'd probably low ball the hell out of them and offer something like $1,500 to start, but I wouldn't pay any more than $2,500 for a car that needs bodywork. I think you're underestimating the cost of the repairs by at least $1,500, but probably more than that.

Paint work isn't cheap. To paint that rocker, they'd need to paint the whole door and likely blend into the fender and quarter panel, to achieve a good match. It starts adding up in a hurry. I bet you could find one that doesn't need that work for a similar price, or just a bit more. There's deals to be had out there; this, to me does not seem like one of them.

The rest of the car looks to be in pretty good shape, but it's the paint work that's going to bite ya. If you're good with a rattlecan, you could very likely get decent results by having a paint supply shop mix up a rattlecan with your paint code and save quite a bit of money. I just can't personally justify a few grand on a car that needs some bodywork, but I've also never even tried to claim to be a bodyman. Shadetree mechanic, absolutely. Put a hammer and dolley in my hands and I might make it worse than before I started.

i did body work and painting for a year or so i could definitely make it blend probably for just the cost of the paint and some other small supplies probably like $200 if idont have to get any other body panels

Oh hell, I wish I knew that up front. lol... I was assuming the body work was something that would be farmed out to others, not self-performed. I'd still low ball the price, but you could probably do the work for a lot cheaper than I was initially figuring.
