Default Is this bad here?

I had my gf look at this car cause i'm in afghan right now. The guy said it was hit buy a dear which is fine I was gonna convert it to a 00-02 t/a anyways. But as you can see in the pic the quarters don't line up with the roof. Is this something that can be adjusted or is the frame or body fooked? I need to know cause I need to let him know if i'm gonna buy it. It's only $300 but if the frame is messed up obviously i'm not gonna. Thanks alot guys.

That doesn't looked messed up to me. The part of the quarter that bubbles out right below the sail panel, is suppose to line up with the hatch spoiler not the sail panel. From those pics its kinda hard to tell if the frame has any damage in the rear, but I would say it looks ok. For some comparison heres a pic of my brothers car with 15K miles and no accidents.

Hit by a dear? A John Dear?


J/K man, BUY it! You can get more than $300 out of it by parting her out. Do it!
