I saw it in person and it could be fixed with some patience. Would take some frame pulling and a new inner fender wall probably. Nothing a good body shop couldn't bang out. I almost bought it the first time around, but found another silverstone in better shape with a lighter hit.


For a LS1 swapped car, it would be the perfect candidate. It would be hacked to shit anyways for the swap, so what if the frames been repaired.

i wouldnt say it would be something that a shop could just knock out. repairing a bent frame is a shit ton of work by itself not including the new sheet metal it needs.

Exactly man, exactly.

BUT this community has been good to me in the short time I've been in it. I really want the stuff gone to make room for a new eventual toy. I WILL be back in a 04-05 white.

I sold the one with a greddy kit a month back, finally selling my built one. Guy sending deposit to hold it tonight, flying up from FL Friday to buy it. Hope it goes, I really want this NSX.
