Those pics make baby Jesus cry. Good to see you're alright after those pics, that is bad.

That hurts to look at Navy!

def hurts to look at but if everything goes well u could be getting a healthy check from the insurance and if they sell it back to u cheap u could make some great money on this deal since most of the good stuff is still fine.

Or just fix that one. Yeah it's pretty fucked but it's not that bad. I've fixed worse. Buy it back cheap and come out way on top all said and done.

Thats totaled and should never be fixed.

I've worked on some that were damaged like that.When the frame is pulled it gets very weak.Put it on a lift for awhile and the frame starts to bend again just by the weight of the car.

And if all you were to do was pull it and leave it then I'd agree with you.
The proper way would be to replace the right apron and radiator support with new metal.

If I actually venture into trying to fix it thats how it would be done. I would be getting a Camaro wrecked in the rear and replacing the front clip on mine with new metal.
