Default is it worth fixing?

so i came upon a 2001 cummins 24v 4x4 today that a guy wants 2100 bucks for, thats right 2100.

the thing is that the truck was rolled, apparently rolled down a hill 3 times.
the guy insists that the truck runs and drives 100% fine, like it was un touched mechanically.

im just wondering if its too good to be true. what hidden issues could have been caused by the crash that wouldn't show up until its being regularly driven again.

i know the truck is worth more then 2100 in parts but id really like to just find a donar for the body parts and put in back on the street.

let me get some input everyone
