Find a donor chassis and do a transplant.


It doesn't look like your front end got too badly crunched, but on this type of body there's no way to know...... It could look like there's no "frame" damage, but after spending $2K to fix all that stuff, it would sure suck to find out that it just won't drive straight anymore.

More importantly, how will it perform in the next frontal crash if the repair isn't done *perfectly*?


BTW - No WAY you hit @ 35MPH. Airbags would have gone off, and your car would be much more totaled than it is..... The front end would have crushed down quite a ways. Looks more like a 10MPH hit. You slowed down more than you think....
