Maybe. You dont want a car that was on fire though. Just trust me.

i say go for it. if u have the time and dedication you can do it. just hope you st6ick to it and not back out the last minute

Damn that really sucks for that guy.

Anyways that would be one hell of a project for you. You up to it? I would definetly just but the car outright

 

[4g63turbo84]

i have seen the car before it count on fire and it was really nice, if i do it i plan on going with one color, but for the price it isn't bad because the car as no dents...

If you buy that car, you are just setting yourself up for a life filled with problems and misery.

 

[Guzman08]

see how much work you have to do to get it running first. and how much it would cost.

You mean "opinion"???!

And the first thing to note is that you will have to replace the full wire harness for the engine and the rest of the car. If you don't mind that tedious task, then I say go for it...

 

[cookmeup272]

Lol fire damage doesnt mean you just have to respray it. You will definitely have to replace all the wiring and hoses. My guess is you will have to replace EVERYTHING in that engine bay. If you want a headache, sure go ahead. DSM's are already money pits. The ones that caught on fire and more like money sinkholes.

i would check you state laws about cars that went through fires, cause i dont believe in Va you can register a car that has been in fire. it could only be a racing car, or track car..


edit i might be wrong, i cant find a link backing up my last statement....

Wouldnt the fire make the metal really brittle? I wouldnt even start down the road of saving that car.......
