Claude L over on the DML posted this a couple of days ago, and as he didn't post it here, I thought I'd step in and repost.

10077 with an estimated repair cost of $30k (poor guy just bought it too :( )

I guess anything is salvageable with the right amount of money. But that car has a lot of useable parts. The interior is in great shape and that alone is worth the current bid price of $600+

I'm interested in the 2nd one. Close to mine in VIN, manual trans, same color interior.

What the hell happened to it? Jeezus. That's terrible. Funny thing about "DELOR1S" that's 1258s name.

That's a shame. Nice car, too.

It's really sad to see these cars with this much damage... I'm thinking the first one probably has frame damage at the left front and a bunch of cracked fiberglass since the doors no longer close.

The second one doesn't look any better. The whole car looks twisted and every panel looks to be damaged.

I'm thinking these will both get parted out.
