Totaled, The ask is far too high. Without doubt, there is frame damage that
must be repaired, then I conservatively estimate replacement cost for all
the deployed air bags would run in excess of $12,000.00.
Call a Pic and Pull yard, sell it for what they will give you and be done

If the owner wasn’t going to fix it I wonder why they bought it back from 
insurance co? Scrap is going to be less than taking total loss payout.

Old guys of a particular vintage could have a "fancy yurpeen sports car" 
and hang out in the garage and stay out of his wife's way but the 
projects never got finished before he died of obesity comorbidities and 
whoever ends up with them just wants them gone.


That said, for $300 (or better yet haul it off for scrap) it would be 
kinda fun to rat rod something like that, get the cutoff tool and welder 
and fiberglass tools out and throw in a Marzaydeez 617 or a 606 with 
some fat tires and just go generate massive clouds of rubber smoke at 
the C while being a complete sociopath. HOOOW
