Chassis or suspension damage? If not which doesn't sound like it then go for it. Not a deal breaker. These cars are instant classics. So many classics are restored and have been in accidents before.

After all... You are buying it to drive it right? Buy it already ;-) As long as you feel you know enough about it.

Per accident report given to me, no suspension or chassis was affected. It was just hood, bumper, left front fender and miscell parts were removed.

No chassis/suspension damage. The bumper is plastic so unrepairable and it cost around $1,400 for that alone. They replaced the hood around $1,500. Painting, $1 k, etc. all amounting to about $ 8k. A friends E350 rear ended another car, broke his grill, replaced at $6k.....
