The trailing edge of the doors are protruding on both sides and worth investigating further to make sure the frame is straight.

With zero maintenance history you either have to get a PPI or assume the worse regarding its mechanical condition. Suspension alone could be a few grand or more depending on what it needs. Shift linkage may need work, the top may need work and last but not least the engine could need work at that mileage.

Are you planning to do the work yourself or sub it out? It’s pretty easy to throw some serious money at these cars to get them running well and fixing previous issues.

The bummer is the total loss, regardless of it being minor or major that record will follow the car and will reduce the resale value significantly. If you intend to keep it a long time or do something unique with the car then so be it but if its a short term purchase I’d say lowball or walk away.
