I'd like to hear some thoughts on buying late models that has been re-clipped are they worth fooling with or should they be stayed away from. Does it make a difference if the brand manufacturer does the clip job. Also like to hear thoughts on if the rear has some work.

If it has been done correctly, they are fine. Just like with the original construction, sometimes they are better afterwards, sometimes they are not.

Most cars have had stuff repaired altered or clipped. It all matters "0" if it keeps everything functioning correctly. The thing about many chassis you should be concerned with is how many races, how old, and how safe also how did the car live it's life. Chromoly cars tend to wear or flex out while mild steel cars tend to wear in. But they all have a life span. While technology does change and you can update those old chassis, at some point it does become pointless and a new chassis eventually will be better served. Just my opinion hope this helps.
