To re-build....NO.
To strip and sell for parts....maybe. It seems like the airbags are intact. The interior seems to be in good shape. And the rear body is OK. Maybe you cna make a couple bucks on parts.

I have offered the insurance $1200, and if they accept i'll get it and try to fix it back up, I hope it will be back to about 50% or more to normal driving...
and thank you for your input.

No...
And when you're done with it, nobody is going to buy it from you since it'll have a salvage title...
Oh, the CL forum is over here: https://acurazine.com/forums/acurazine-1/

I got 8k on mine as a trade in, probably could have gotten 10 on a private sale, but with that salvage title, I wouldn't invest the money unless you plan to drive it until it dies. But you could probably just buy one for 10g's or less from a dealer.

btw, if you wanted to go through the hassle, you could easily make money parting out this car. Wheels - 400-500
Engine - 2K
Headlights - 200
Interior - 500-1000
etc, etc

Okay I have Made my decision, according to my Mechanic....he said it is fixable as we went to take a look of the car at the LOT...I dont intend to sell this car..."this car will not go on sale"....and yes the car has Salvage title...
I spoke with the insurance people and they ve agreed to let it go for $1350, & since i had about 2K wondering I decided to approved the buy...i'll try to fix it...I have guys here who will work on it...i'll post progress!...Keep on visiting!...I couldnt let this car go!....
give me another 3weeks!...
Thanks,
R.

I've seen people get cars in waaay worst condition for more money.
Good luck with the restoration!
...and hey, if it goes over what the car is worth you can always chaulk it up as a project. Projects are priceless.

Ok. I'm closing this up... It's about a CL, so it should have been posted in the CL forum to begin with. Feel free to post the updates or a introduction thread here:
https://acurazine.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=1
I don't think so... Salvage means your on your own IIRC.. No warranty work...
