How much is too much?

I've found a 90 RS with 66k original miles, all stock except a flowmaster muffler. The drivers side of the car is pretty much perfect, but the passenger side has a good bit of body damage. The fender and door will need to be replaced/straightened. The rear quarter panel on both sides of the wheels has a little damage, but can definitely be fixed.

I know pictures would help but I don't have any. The guy wants 3000 for the car, which seems high to me. The good thing is, I have a fender and a door. I want this car, but I don't know how much it's actually worth. Would 2000 be too much?

Re: How much is too much?

I agree. Even though it is a low mileage car, unless you have some extensive body work experience, it will most likely cost you more than it's worth by the time you get it repaired. Save your money and buy something in better shape. Even if you have to spend a little more to get something nice, you will probably come out ahead in the long run.

Re: How much is too much?

I agree that $3k is too much for that amount of damage. Also you did not state if the car is a hard or T-top, 3.1 or Lo3 305, auto or stick. See all the details make a differaance as well, but still seems like too much money even if was a Lo3, loaded T-top car.
