Reply to "My old car on Bring a Trailer"

@RoyP, the accident was a rear ender - me into the back of a Honda.  I won't bore everyone here with the story again, but I had a brake issue that wasn't obvious except in a panic stop.  Beck replaced the front end body work and painted the front of the car.  If your comment "It definitely looks like it has had paintwork" is about the slightly darker shade on the doors, it's always been that way.  This was one of the early Brazilian built cars, and they may have done some touch-up before I got it.  The paint from the windshield back is original and in great shape.  Pictures show the mismatch but it's almost invisible in the flesh.  The paintwork on the front is excellent.  There was no frame or mechanical damage except a slight bend to one of the front body mounts.  The car would have been drivable except the fuel line was leaking.
