Thats why the brand is rebuild after you pass the structual inspection. back in the day youre right people used to do things like chop a car and weld another half on without measuring or anything, people would get killed because of poor workmanship, so now we have inspections and the car has to be within spec of .3mm, it varies from state to state country to country. some parts of europe there is still no government agency controlling what goes on. but i think that STI will make an awesome car for someone one day.

that's funny.. when i dropped my crx off at my uncles shop for work he had two chevy malibu's. 1 front end totalled, 1 rear end totalled, both completely stripped. He said the dealership was paying him to make 1 good car from it. then they resell it.

My bother-in-law buys cars like that and then rebuilds them to sell. That's how my 21 year old sister is driving a 2002 Linclon LS. It need a whole passenger side. The welded in a full b-piller, door sills and roof line. He does 2001-present Ford diesels all the time. The only problem for the sti rebuild would be finding that rear quartar unless and reqular wrx fits.
