Re: Rebodied cars and do they get certified
A car has a firewall job done when it was only 1.5 years old as a repair while under insurance. The firewall effort was not concealed, and was just ripped across the floorboards - rockers and all. The original green paint is still visible on this blue car.
What is it? Is it acceptable as a repair? The motive at the time it was done was to repair it, not to defraud anyone.

If the proof is there to support the above, the intent to defraud is not there....yet! . Sounds like a "clipped" car which is cut/joined through the floors and A-pilars and a common repair shop situation. . So, here we are years later, do you now clean up the poor workmanship....probably, even though it "disguises" this repair fact further. . Just when you sell the car you need to pass this information on to the next owner and it's best to do this on paper so if he ever sells it without doing the same to the susequent buyer, he can't say he wasn't aware! ~ Pete
