It is very hard to see on these photos but it doesn't look too bad.

these two doors can be fixed easily as is the rear fender.

to pull the fender out and repair the doors shouldn't cost more than 1500 USD.
taillight 150 USD on Ebay
assuming front bumper is just dirty
New oil cooler as your is punched or oil punched oil pan 200 USD

With a bit of luck you could be on the road for 2000 USD

Cool - let's hope he takes you up on it. I'd be down for some shop time giving you a hand this winter. I have a slightly bent right front wheel so I'm trying to track down either a complete set or just 1 Zeus for the front, that's my interest in the wheels.

chris that sounds like a really goood offer right now considering that its prob just going to continue to rust and rust since i wont prob do nothing with it anyways.... would you be able to give me your email address? ill email you and then maybe we could exchange phone numbers in email and talk about it more k?
im not too sure what im doing with it right now. but im willing to talk more with you..
remember that was just a rough estimate of the damage. i could possibly have you come down to take a look at it.. ill let you know.
also did anyone have an answer on the supercharge? if i was to take apart the supercharger, would it be worth anything at all ? those things are pretty durable im sure it would sell.

I think you are referring to Jason (phd12volt) - he offered to buy the whole car. Selling the blower would be something you would consider if you were parting it out, but not selling it whole. You could get a few hundred maybe for it. Just a guess.

The title question wasn't answered unless I missed something. That is a big deal.

i did 30 episodes. Basically all the cars at G.A.S. i had a hand in building. (some of them i re did the complete electrical system by hand, and yes i made my own wiring harnesses and my own relay networks.)we stopped filming in 2007 just so you know. If you want to see what i do now click here: www.encoreautomotivesystems.com or www.autopageusa.com I currently am doing technical support, training, and product developtment. My background is wiring and electrical work.


anyway, i still am waiting for the title answer also. my personal email is phd12volt@gmail.com

feel free to email the answers if need be.

If anything, if you dont want it to sit outside and rust, i can at least put it inside a building for you. Then i will invite my crew over for a "lets see how bad this car really is" party. If you saw some of the vehicles in the shop right now, and what they used to look like, it would make more sense. HOWEVER, even though this vehicle is quite alot newer than the shop cars.

What a great gesture Jason - RuinedJag you should seriously start a dialogue with Jason on the issues regarding the car, this kind of offer doesn't grow on trees.

hey PHDvolt... I called your number. Someone else answered. Did you change numbers?
Can you send me a email with your new number at track2006_400meters@yahoo.com

Wanted to know if you wanted to come down and take a look at the car.....

I dont have the room now. Sorry. Got a 65 Nova, 88 vette, 68 GTO, and a 67 Chevelle, and a partridge in a pear tree all in the shop right now. Oh ans a golf cart. too many projects too little time.

Did you get the title yet? That may sway someone who wants it also.

I just read the guys post and he said "i dont have much money right now" and then the next sentence he says "i wanna part it out" then he says "i wanna get it running" then he has no licence?

WTF ... this guy just said 3 different things he wants to do with his car!...
1- Sell it
2- part it out
3- buy some door/parts
4- hes on broke status
5- he got no licence
6- get it running

so hmm he wants to part it out to get some money, then buy parts to get it running with the money he made from selling the parts? which he stated he has no money to buy these parts hahahahahahaha

its gonna cost a gripp of money to fix this car back up then to try and make a profit afterwards? thats gonna be hard it will probably cost more to fix it back to good condition then what it would cost to sell it...plus he stated that the car has been sitting OUTSIDE rusting? let alone the condition of the interior all dried up and cracking leather...his car is TOTALED...sell it as is u are better off than dealing with the headache to restore it plus the time it would take to put it all back together....
