Geeez, that's gonna need a whole lot of work. It's worth nowhere near what he's asking. If it's very low miles i'd say it might be a good deal at 1200-1500, just for a project. It prolly needs another 6000-10000 in work just to be restored to factory stock.

I talked to the guy, sounds to me like some kid had it that didn't appreciate it as it should have been - the now owner, isn't the original owner.

Goin' to check on a loan this weekend...she needs to be saved.

It does need saved, not as bad as I figured it'd be, probably the rear 1/4 would need a pro, but the rest are just bolt on items

That is sad indeed. I looked at a 99 firehawk back in april and the owner wanted 13.5 thousand for it and it was just as bad. The whole interior was shot though, and it needed a new paint job. That same weekend I saw a trashed 10th anniversery car like this one. Gotta face it I guess not everyone takes care of their cars.

If the outside looks that bad, I can just imagine how he took care of the engine and trans...! I see from the 2 throttle cables it was ordered without traction control, just like mine, neat.

what the hell did that retard do to this car? someone should backtrack to the original owner, or whoever did this, and pimp slap the little bastard into next week. i cant believe its in such horrible shape. you can only imagine the condition of the motor, trans, and rear after the beating the body and interior took. sure, somebody save it....but not for more then $2000.

Sad to know that a 10th anny Firehawk needs a full "restoration."

It looks like it got hit with flood damage.

Among other things.....

Like a fat chick to the hood, an axe to the wing, a battering ram to the passenger side, and a couple knife slashes to the seats!!!

Looks like it was vandalized or stolen at one point.

Ironically I was on eBay just the other day and saw that thing....... EXTREMELY sad and unfortunate.... I am having identity crisis with the rear bumper.... it looks like a Formula bumper but yet the front is a T/A bumper.... perhaps replaced?

With all the wierd damage, I say theft recovery . . .

Plus in picture #6 and #7 it appears there is red paint UNDER the black on the fender, door and rocker . . . .

The passenger side "Firehawk" decal is missing . . .

I say it's been wrecked (before) . . .

I have a buddy who would never wash his car, never change any fluids (just fill them), and break **** off and bang it up all the time. It was a little Toyota p/u, but it looked like a theft recovery when it finally died. Random damage everywhere.
