If you're doing the work yourself, I'd say make a run at it. Should be able to shave a couple of hundred off the asking with as much as it needs.

But, if you're going to have to pay the full load on the sheet metal and underside repairs (cowl too?), I'd keep looking.

As stated above, it's a good idea to buy the best you can afford. In the long run it saves time & money.

Good luck. [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]
