Justin,

Glad you're ok. Sorry to hear about this unfortunate incident. But hey, cars & parts are replaceable, body parts may not be, and so we live to build again.

Let me know if there's anything I can do to help out on your next project.

I completely understand what you are feeling.

I been through 3 wrecks myself, one being truly my fault.

It is good to know your out fine, and I too was unhurt but the heart hurted really bad.

My damages weren't to destructive and she has been resurrected twice from life threatening dangers.

I wish you luck on your rebuild or your hunt for a new chassis.

Sorry to hear about it.
Glad you are OK.

You can fix it, if you want and it comes out OK. I crashed mine
in the exact same damage just driver side (fell asleep hit a parked car).

It's not that hard.
Find a totally fubar one and take a cutting wheel (I actually used a dremmel)
and you cut the frame out from the center of the car (that cross piece) and
then down the fender well in front of the shock, and there is a small amount
of frame to cut under the headlight.

Cut larger than you crashed.

Cut your crashed parts off. Just line up the new section and screw/bolt it on.
Then go back and weld it. I just used a basic wire/home hobby welder not the
fancy ones.

After that its just all about finding the body parts in good condition.

If you decide to trash this thing I would like to buy miscellaneous interior parts and such.
Little trim pieces and such that are just aggrevating to find used.
If you want to sell.

Honesly, that is a nice car. I hope you decide to fix it.
