WAISTE! buy a v6 car and swap it over. a car that was never hit. and it will be cheaper in the long run. why drive a wrecked car it will never be the same. i dont care how good you are at body work the car will NEVER ever be factory spec again.

i know someone that could pull that. regardless of what anyone has to say, if it was pulled correctly and the sheet metal thats damaged beyond repair was replaced the car would be right again.

The proper way would be to replace the right apron and radiator support with new metal.
yup, and it would need to be pulled right. from watching our frame guy do work there is more to it than just hooking up a chain and yanking it back.

They will almost certainly total it, but that doesn't really answer the question of whether it can or should be fixed. I think the first step would be to have someone who knows their shit look it over. Another thing to remember is if it does get fixed it needs to go through a salvage inspection.

Ive had 3 different excellent body guys look at it and all have said it can be repaired to where it would be like it was AND just as safe.
