Thing is it doesn't take all that much to scrap a car that's 5-7 years old and there may not even be drivetrain or suspension issues. The drummer in our band has a Honda that was scrapped and then repaired by a guy down the street from him. Guy has a full-on rack in his shop and did all the bodywork and paint. He's been driving it for the three years I've known him and the only issue so far was a bad radiator and alternator.

He ended up with a nice looking and running car with very low miles for 1/3 of what he would have otherwise paid.
