Whoa dude do not pay anymore than 4k. If it was totaled it was due to frame damage and that's about 90$ an hour. And sometimes it can never be straight again. Think about this extremely clear before you shell out that amount of cash. You might not know what you are getting yourself into. Engine,tranny, and suspension could have significant damage as well. Just food for thought...

if there is ANY frame damage that thing isn't worth a red cent in my opinion. Once a car has that much damage it's never the same, never drives in a straight line, and will never perform the same. It's missing an A/C Condenser, radiator is trashed, headlights, hood, quarter panels front and rear, taillight is busted, front and rear bumpers, front bumper FRAME rail. then you have to consider paint and body work...it's WAY more than $6k to fix....try closer to $12-15k...and if the frame is damaged then it's gonna track like crap...the alignment will never stay in check.

But that's my .02 cents. Salvage Title=crap
