It is very clean but it most likely has frame damage and it would make my 3.8 live as a 5.0

Actually with my experience with these cars and how the pics look my guess would be that the apr0n is bent. Which is what pen 15ed the battery like that and possibly the bumper struts are damaged. Ive wrecked a couple birds in my life so far, 2 worse than that and no frame damage, just core support and apr0n damage. Besides EFI 5.0's are a dime a dozen unlike clean Tbirds. I actually know of a motor my buddy has 5.0 HO just sitting in his shed waiting for some one to use it.

Assuming that there is little to no body rot, she is definitely worth at least $800.  I would offer $1000 (asking), if the owner agreed to cover costs over and above $500 to straighten the front end substructure.  Not the surface sheet metal, header panel, etc.  She appears to be a clean Sport, worthy of being saved.

Seems like an easy fix, especially with no rust.

I think i'll be going to check it out this weekend, says he doesnt want to go lower but will if i can take it asap. From the area I think he's probably getting problems from the city for having a wrecked car in his driveway.

Well body damage is easier to fix than rust :).

Yes Damage looked worse the first time I saw it, thought it may have been also rear ended since the trunk was popped(was looking at it from my phone). If I can se the money up for a tow truck,I  may have another tbird lol. Although I could probably drive it with the tires inflated/battery charged.

I don't see anything that makes me think it has been rear ended, feel fairly confident that the trunk lid is just open.
