[ALL SOLD] 2006 Totaled Elise For Parts or Project

Its time to sell my beloved 2006 Lotus Elise Project car. This car was rolled over and that destroyed all the body panels but a great running driving chassis is all that remains. It is not feasible to make this car road worthy but would make a good autocross vehicle or perhaps track car with lots of work or use it for parts. It was my intent to make an autocross car out of it however lifes events forces its sale. The car has only 5019 miles on it and is sold with a bill of sale only (no title). I will not part it out just need to sell the entire car to a fellow enthuthiast. Vehicle is located in North Carolina and can be viewed most anytime. Hopefully the pictures will capture the scope of the damage.Asking $7800.00

Yikes, looks like the rear wheel is angled back a bit, and a cracked window frame may be pretty hard to fix. Might reconsider parting it out?

take the bill of sale and get a bonded title, thats what I did with my M3. It cost me $100 to have my insurance write the Bond, then had to pay the sales tax, but other than that it was cake.

it seems most sports cars get rolled more frequently than SUV's... simply lose control, slide off the road sideways, the outside tires stop as they drops low into the berm/ditch and it promptly flips.

Exactly what happened to me in a BMW M Coupe...sliding sideways down a graded hill with only your wheels to dig in and stop you isnt fun
