Man oh man, oh man. Thank god my neighbor knew a body man to check out that MS6 for him....holy HELL was it a pile of s***!
-the edges of the hood were half assed repaired, didn't line up with anything, and the center of it was rusting through already
-all the gaps on the front end were off, due to the upper structure being swayed about 13mm (I measured it out)
-BUNCH of random shields missing here and there under the bumper, the wheel wells, and cowl panel
-pass side CV boot was ripped and spewing grease all over the place
-pass side ball joint(s) needed replaced
-both suspensions had used parts installed (there were junkyard marks here and there)
-driver side rocker panel was half assed repaired, the rocker molding didn't even snap in all the way because the rocker was still pushed in
-driver side quarter panel had a TON of bondo in it and was already cracking
-massive trunk leak somewhere, about an inch of water in EACH of the 2 little cubby holes on the sides
-half ass attempt at a fender roll on the passenger side quarter, much like all roll jobs I see though
-passenger rear door was rusting on the lower inside edge, bad
-misc. scratches, dings, and dents everywhere
-terrible paint job on the whole car, there was so much dirt in it, it looked like they painted it outside
-window tint falling off
-dirt spots all over the light colored interior parts
-all 4 wheels had massive curb rash on them, and the tires were all chewed up from being too wide for the car and rubbing
-headlight was out, lulz
I just couldn't believe the terrible condition of the car. And like....someone's going to end up buying that car eventually, thinking they got a steal on a cool car! It's so sad.....it pays to know a body man though when dealing with salvage/rebuilds!
He found another cheap one in the same area though. This one has 97K, but appears to be in better shape. They're only asking $9,900 though, so the price reflects the imperfections with the car. Again, said it drove nice and all, but appeared a little slower than the other one for some reason? He may go check it out tomorrow in the daylight, and I may go with him if he does.
