I just read your post about being a body man, that is a good thing because this looks like a lot more then a do it yourselfer should attempt to fix.

Hope the mailbox is ok!!! Lol
Hopefully not a lot of "body work" but rather just replacing some parts!

Stick a 06-07 front end on

thats some serious structural damage to the front apron, rad support and strut tower, lotsa suspension work aswell... theres definitly going to be a sway in the front end and tak alot of hours to repair in a shop.. by the time you add it all up its prolyl a write off.. part it out dont waste your time. sorry

looks like a good project. Most of the parts should be junkyard-able. I'd say if you don't spend a ton on parts, and do alot of the work you'll be fine. Gonna be fun getting it straight again though....
