Those look like the tubes for washer fluid delivery to the windshield. The rad cap doesn't look OEM ITR so maybe the rad isn't either. Red hose for overflow. MSD blaster coil under CAI. VIN plate on tranny

That's all I can see.

The Intake, the header, the red hose for the radiator resivoir, the two boxes next to the power steering fluid, the red valve cover and possibly the entire engine.

haha......let's be optimistic here

Does that look like epoxy or some similar substance near the driver side shock tower?? Anyone have any ideas what that could be?

Ooo...Ooo....I see aftermarket suspension too

Not sure about the epoxy. This picture doesn't do it justice.

FYI - I was looking at a 2005 Ford F-150 SuperCrew today with a 12K hit on it. Drivers side T-bone accident. Damaged has been fixed. I crawled around that sucker and had a hard time spotting any imperfections. Some major hits can be fixed properly.

it that one of the R's in copart? i saw that one too! but i asked my dad about it and he told me that if the car has a salvage title on it, and it has slight visible damage on the outside, the underbody of the car (frame and other components) is probably all f-ed up, and thats why they salvaged the caR.

I bet the front core support has been changed. None of the OEM stickers are on it. You should check the frame rails for bends ore kinks.

It doesn't it's USDM, I'm just stating that it's not a big deal if the core support is changed, ppl do it everyday when they do a JDM conversion

That means it has been hit hard enough to have to replace the core support. I wouldnt want an ITR that has had the core replaced due to an accident. IMO.
