There is nothing salveable on this car...not sure on the sad story.

Man that autocheck score is so far off. Apparently they must think a car could be in worse condition than this thing.

$4900 for that? Nah..take off a few more thousand, this poor car was the unsuspecting victim of the previous owner. So much damage, you would have rebuild the whole damn car...it's not like it was involved in an accident and most of it was intact. BBQ'd beyond totaled...

BAHAHA!! I love the way you say "wheels definitely might be the cause" so casually I agree those wheels should be ILLEGAL!! The owner should be sold for $4900

I wouldn't even want the block or crank out of that thing. It clearly burned for a while and got way hotter then anything should ever get in that car. That is 100% junk in my personal opinion.
