Are you the Black Knight

Classic Coach works or Karrosserie are by far your best bets. Both are actually local to me. They do all the heavy stuff...

Too bad though, instead of fixing it you could buy an E55 and still have some change, but I hope you find someone good, that is a beautiful spec 599!

Shame to see as the color combo is so full on win, good luck!

Sorry to see that on just a good looking car.

yes it at an auction place near me. It is actually going to sell I think tomorrow. I think $50-60K would fix it.

It maybe alot of leg work but might payoff in the end. not sure what will happen to the value of it due to a Salvage title.

Any guesses? most likely about 35% lower then Nada or KBB, thats my guess.

Is this a car you're looking to purchase? Whenever wrecks like this show up, a lot of people have usually already crunched the numbers on it and determined it's better (cheaper) to write it off at whatever cheap price it sells for than to fix it. Meaning, it's almost always a LOT of work and money (B-pillar damage suggests frame work) to get it road worthy. Not to mention how a "I bought it crashed at an auction and decided to fix it up on a budget" story absolutely murders resale the day it's back on the road and you want to unload it.

Why take a chance?

I'd guess $80-100K reduction in resale value.

If thats minor damage I would like to see what you would call serious damage!!! If thats your own car and your looking to get it repaired you will always worry about any small noise coming from it afterwards as it will never drive the same again!!! if your going to buy it to do up stay away it will burn money like you wouldnt believe. Take up a previous post surgesstion and invest in something else that actual drives!!!!
