I do not see much wrong with the door alignments, but I do see problems with the top...
About the value, replace all electronics and looms from a accident-car (10.000...) have the engine checked out with a boroscope and compression test, and if it checks out ok, then apart from the title the car is good. I say 24.000 is what it will bring on ebay.
But reserve will be higher.

 

If i was to buy a 2nd Fcar, I would buy a salvage/ flood, but it would have to be a hardtop
Get it cheap, take it all apart, replace everything needed. Gut it, race it....smile.

 

What moron tries to start a car that was under water for any period of time without any diagnostics and remediation?

 

I think you have your answer

 

Hell no!

It took me 2 seconds to find as I have all 355 sales outlets bookmarked.

 

Obviously, the most important thing with a flooded car is to determine if the electric seats are still operational.

 

That car is "baller!"

Besides the flood title I might also check to see if that car is listed as stolen.

 

I think I may know that shop, from my old stomping grounds, yard looks very familiar with the bridge by the falls
Paterson NJ

 

"Bailer" not "Baller"

 

please help a non-englishnativespeaker , what is a baller car? Sounds more german to me...

 

The term "Baller" in the US is a rather new term for "high roller" - someone that is filthy rich.

 

This is a "Bailer"

 

Directly derived from a professional football, baseball, basketball player, cut to encompass all as “ballers” The college age kid who just signed multi million dollar contracts to play pro ball. Ordering up his new lambo and a neck full of gold chains etc.
Used quite often as a derogatory term (as least by me) because they are usually just punk az kids with too much money showing off all the bling they can afford.

 

Hummm

$32,000 for that car and reserve not met. Interesting.

 

Thanks for explaining the baller word.
Universal image problem, those ballers. I guess in the States they are all obligatory heavily tattood as well?
Lambo and Bentley types, most of the time. Certainly no youngtimer Ferrari guys.

 

I cannot believe this thing has gotten up to $35,600 as a Salvage Flood Vehicle... What is wrong with People???
This thing is gonna be a Nightmare with Crazy Electrical Issues.
A 1996 No Reserve with a Rebuilt Title for Minor Front End Damage just sold for $39,950
A 1995 No Reserve Auction with no issues just sold for $47,900
Wait for one of those for $4000 extra or a Normal Title for $12,000 more, cause I'd bet your gonna blow at least $12K on this Flood Vehicle...

 

I’d say much more than $12K to bring it back to life. Wouldn’t the engine need to be pulled and disassembled?

Reserve not met.

Speaks volume about these cars value. Nice!

 

and in 25 years, there will be a 1 in front of that number, and it'll be a restorable classic that needs everything.
