Back and the SC is wrecked
OK guys. I will be posting pics tomorrow.
It actually rained in San Diego and the wife hit a wall in the SC. I am wondering on some ballpark prices for stuff.
Main thing is this. The support that the raidiator bolts up to is severely bent up and in pushing some minor stuff in the engine bay back.but the engine still runs perfect ( Airbags didn't go off ) How bad is this and how much does this cost to get straigtened out. The rest is cosmetic ( hood, front quaters, front bumper lights etc ) and I can do this stuff myself. probably going to be front suspension and alignment issues too so what do you guys think about the front bent support piece.
Pics coming tomorrow
Thanks guys and sorry I have been gone for so long.

Tracy, welcome back. Sorry it's under these terms. Hit me up if I can help in anyway or if you just want to chat. I still haven't had time to go down to the office in Rancho Santa Fe which is why we haven't hooked up. Hope everything works out otherwise, I'm sure everyone will help you as much as they can.
Sorry again that this happened

well it isn't so much the body parts I am worried about as the bent front radiator support piece. I mean I am wondering should I even put all the money that it may cost back into fixing it. And just to add, insurance is not in effect here meaning we have to bear full cost yeah that hurts and no it wasn't my call on the insurance.
Aliga will defenitely be hearing from me he has had parts that I needed every time so far.

Cool thanks man but I will have to check if there is a lot of other stuff under there that is all bent in. I haven't had a chance because it was getting dark last night and is raining really bad today but I will do up close inspection and post pics that will make it easier for you guys to tell me what you think. I tried to move on from this car after I gav eit to her but damn I love these SC's.

you can get the rad support used for about 250 or so. its pretty much bolt on, but you have to weld the ends to the frame rails where the fenders bolt into.
