Question: Is it worth buying the care back for $1K or do I take the hit and start all over again? 
 
Any advise is appreciated.

 i buy it back and use the parts for another ce..... expecially if you have a good interior...and working seat belt extenders, etc...    you essentially have a new engine
 
doesnt' sound like too bad of an accident 5600 doesn't go far on those cars..
 
i am glad to hear your son is ok...or it appears that way.
