Engine $18k tranny $9k misc parts another $10k possibly more - the time to part out. Fix the issues will set you back $30k min possibly more. I would have preferred to buy the car damaged from the accident and fixed it up properly. I bet it will cost more to fix now from fixing all the bad work.
No problem indeed. It's just a different opinion.

I will mention the 356 market again as proof that these cars have value beyond the sum of the parts even when there's glaring and major metalwork issues. I recall seeing one which sold easily even with a rippled (!!) floorpan.

Will the 964 get there ? Possibly.
Is this 964 a parts car ? No way.
