That will buff right out.
Does the driver's door look out of kilter? It doesn't seem flush when closed. Good observation about euro specifications. The VIN provided is definitely not a 1989 VIN. The salvager is asking 25K locally.

Not refering to you Brandon, but just in general: Not sure how it works in the US if it ever can get a clean title again, but looking at it the outside looks great. I find it always peculiar how opinions are formed on a car that got damage. Certainly if someone spend good money at such a car to get it in a condition when it was new or prior to an accident. I mean just look at all the GTOs (and other classics) that are wrecked, rebuild, wrecked again and some beyond repair and people pay crazy money only for a chassis number to build a GTO around the chassis number again and people are fine with this. I read also somewhere that someone mentioned it was a Swiss Mondial based on its chassis number. ZFFFD32S000093104. Where they get this I have no idea, but this is a genuine US sold Mondial when you decode its VIN. What I mean if it is fixed/rebuild properly, the car will be good and I would buy it and drive it like it was stolen. Have fun with it, let other people enjoy by seeing it on the street or a car and coffee meet.
Not according to this VIN decoder: http://www.red-headed.com/vin.html The eighth digit being "S" = Switzerland/Sweden market The tenth digit being "0" = zero is not used here on versions for North America, Middle East, Latin and Central America, and China
Your totally right that it is Swiss. Not sure what I was Writing, got off gard beinig alone with my kids of 1 and 3 yr old That does not go together for a man :S Correction: ...I read also somewhere that someone mentioned it was a US Mondial based on its chassis number.

Was not on their site yesterday and now back . .?? Buyer changed his mind when he saw it ? Maybe. I still love it !
No GTO has been damaged beyond repair. It would cost far more to do a poor fix on a GTO because every buyer will know the history and investigate the fix. If not fixed properly there will be a huge hit in its value. No such profit incentive exists with a Mondial, in fact the inverse is true. There is a huge incentive to patch it together. A unibody is a far more complex fix than a tube frame and parts have about the same availability but the GTO is worth fabricating badly damaged parts, the Mondial not so much. That is part and parcel why so many get totaled after an accident. I would never consider buying a resurrected total Mondial. Sorry, they are not just that rare.
