Hello everyone! I'm new to the forum so I'm gonna do an intro plus get right into business . My name is Jon and I am looking to by a wrecked 2006. All of the damage to the front end, the lady who owns it was going around "so she says" 20mph and rear ended someone at a dead stop. Other than body damage the radiator is busted.
Here's some pics

She only wants $200 for it and she says it starts and rolls fine.

What all should I be on the look out for? ...or is this gonna be a nightmare to get back to a functional vehicle.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks everyone!

This 13 year old car is definitally totalled by insurance companies standards. Does it still have a clean registration title? If not you will need a thorough official inspection before declaring it fit for registering again. Looking at the pictures, you need at least $1000 worth of replacement used parts ( hood, bumper skin, side mirror, radiator, etc). Even if you do the repairs yourself, I dont think a 13 yo car is worth it.
