The car was going to have a SALVAGE TITLE (selling it off is just not that easy), and at least almost $17,000 in repairs, NOT including getting the car on a lift and finding what could be hidden there. Getting parts (because of the rarity of the 2 year design), parts would be a problem. When I said he does HIGH END WORK, it was because I have never see any of his work on the Cheap Side (just fix it fast and make it look OK). John often told me, that any job he works on has his reputation to uphold to look 100% original.
