What do you guys think? I would hate to see an FC go to waste The Bumper support beam seams to be pushed in a little bit. Could easily take those spot welds off re weld another one I don’t know if they used this as a jack point or what but this support beam is bent up a bit The pinch weld jack spots are all bent in wards and are all rusted. This is my biggest concern of the vehicle.
It's hard to tell if that's a black interior. If it is an S5 with black interior, you can most likely get a few bucks outta that. Other than that, the car looks pretty rough.
Hey, the bottom of that car looks like mine. The PO screwed up all the pinch welds, just like that.
Overall, I'd say pass as the car doesn't look to be in great shape. If the exterior, engine, and interior were nice, then I'd say go for it as the pinch welds can be repaired.

My biggest concern is the bottom of the car. I do have a lot of mechanical skills so the engine isn’t really my biggest concern. Also the interior is going to be gutted and more of a track style. The shell is rolling and is for free

do you have any pictures and or advice on your pinch welds replacement?
If it's for track, then go for it. FWIW, that front core support that's bent is hollow and bends easily. I bent mine by using it as a tow point (I know, dumb move).
As for pinch weld replacement, the easiest method would be to try and straighten the pinch welds as best as possible, cut them at the seam and weld in new lengths of L or U- channel tubing. Not easy and time consuming but if it's a track car, then just leave it be.
