Some people have no consideration. The car has been rolled onto a tree/pole, roof cut off to retrieve the occupant(s) inside, blood on the carpet (see the dark spot next to the seat?).

Give the car the peace it deserves. I'm done now.

If it were mine, I would part it out and buy a different first gen Camaro.

A wrecked and salvaged 123 VIN car does not have alot of value, even if the paper is good, not much more than the sum of the salvagable parts
Looks like a very survivable crash, when they cut off the roof it always makes it look worse than it was. If was a late model, they may have walked away
As far as the comment about the seller having no consideration, what do you expect someone to do with a wrecked car that has alot of value in parts ? Have you ever been to an insurance auction or late model junkyard? Sometimes there are more human remains than just blood in the car. :(
Be careful out there.

Salvage yards don't call in Bio-vac teams to clean cars having major injury nor deaths.

Yes, occupants survived the crash, otherwise, the roof would not have been cut off had there been casualties.

And yes, I've been to insurance auctions.

I believe Mikes Custom cars could rebuild it, I was looking at some of their work from another forum link on this site.
Very Inspiring, I Fear no Rust on my '68 No More !

What makes a car a car? I was reading the other Dynacorn body thread a few minutes ago, and this seems like a legitimate use of a dynacorn body...could the cowl and vin be moved over? and the original body crushed. If not, what is the difference in rebuilding a car where every piece of metal needs replaced?
