Default PLEASE HELP... Thoughts on a car that had been in a wreck, if..

I would normally not want a car that had been a wreck or a salvaged title but there is something I have always been curious about.. say there was one that had been in a wreck, lets think just side damage and not enough to total the car out.. if this car was going to have something such as an engine swap done to it, do you think there would still be any issues that could be caused to the car from the wreck?
