too much hassle for such an old car... parts being parts, they are more than the car is worth. Thats just the fact of the matter. If the front end wasn't smashed the side would be worth fixing... but those two together? Nope, you'll pay a fair amount on the frame puller... before any parts get put on.

And both your airbags blew? Forget it.

Get a quote to fix damage... Then look around for a replacement SC300 or another car... If you can find the parts cheaply then the body repair quote would be less.. Scout your local junk yard. You might get lucky and have one in your color with front end parts... If you want to repair it then do it but first see if the cost of repair can possible net you another SC.. If it is then buy another SC and parts this one or catalog the good parts in case you need it in the future..

if what you said is true about the car not being paid off.. you should have full coverage insurance and could call the insurance company. They will tell you were to take the car for a quote and then probably write it off. You might get some money or at least get it paid off.
