WTB: Wrecked Lotus Elise

Hey guys,
I have been looking really hard to find a decently priced wrecked lotus somewhere in the states so that I can fix it up. It doesn't matter if the title is salvage/reconstructed/etc.

There is no color preference, or anything like that.
Looking to spend $10,000 - $15,000

If you guys have any interesting offers, please PM !
I'm located in NJ.

Thanks.

Most totaled cars end up going to insurance auctions .Thats where you can get much better deal versus buying one from ebay where somebody is reselling it . I would sugest to find dealer who has access to online insurance auctions .
I looked on IAAI and Copart Auto Auctions Home Page there is quite a few . These two are largest online car auctions nationwide.
there also should be some smaller auctions that are in your area .
If you take your time you can defenately find some good deals .

If there's frame or chassis damage, make sure you up your life insurance.
