What's up, I'm in the process of buying a car and this one particular ride got my eyes wide open.

A 1993, SC 400 Lexus

only problem is, the passenger side is all damaged (door+back) so I'm wondering if any of you could give me a "quick estimate" of how much the repairs would cost by looking at this picture of it... I know it's a bad angle but it's the only one I have..

Anyway, the car goes for $5,995.00 alone and my budget is of around 10 grand so that's why I'm trying to see if it'll fit into my budget.

The car's picture is in the second post...

link didnt work but I'm assuming you meen the door and the rear qaurter are damaged .....

but if tghe damage is beyond a simple pop out then any good qaulity body shop will want to reaplace the door and cut off the qaurter panel and weild on one from another car...

you can probly gues that that procedure can get pretty expensive......if thats the case youd be looking at the price of a used door,rar qaurter panel, + paint and labor...

if their no other body work missing and they could just do a color match to the match the rest of the factory paint....I gues around $1400 give or take a couple hundred...

it would probly be espeacialy hard to finde an SC lexus in a junkyard too..
