one more thing seller emailed this response just after I posted mine,
Yea I was'nt too sure it had been wrecked either. But it has a clear title now since it was transfered to North Carolina. I believe it was hit in the front and was very light hit, the car was fixed by Arts Corvettes in Bowling Green, Kentucky. They are a very highly prestige corvette dealership right beside the corvette manufacturing plant in bowling green. But everything had been fixed on it when I had purchased the car and there was no possible evidence that showed it had been wrecked. Thanks
Is it still worth going to look at or just run, far far away.

probably pass on that one
It is way overpriced for a rebuilt car in my opinion. Move on and find one that is much better for the same or a little more money.
Maybe the owner will sell for less, but unless you can confirm the car is right, you could be out lots of money just getting it to handle correctly.
Take your time. Lots of cars hitting the for sale list as fall approaches.

Looking at it again, that huge gap is easily fixed by pulling the screws/bolts at the bottom of the front fender, then pushing it back in place and then tightening.

I'd have to go with what others have said before me. I would never consider going with one that has a salvage/rebuild title. There are too many other options out there, for not much more.

When I was looking at vettes early this year I found alot of them had been wreaked and fixed back up. Many of these vettes were priced at market value of a non wrecked low mile vette. In most cases there was no mention of it until I found the evidence and brought it to their attention, then they would fess up. Be carefull there are alot of crooked people out there. Don't rely on carfax sometimes they fix them back up without insurance being involved.
