  • Maaco and the pics of my crashed car

    two questions here, Has anyone here have any experience with the Maaco body shops? Are they any good? Also do you guys think my car is fixable?

      Nobody seems to think there is frame damage to be honest with you. But its always likely it was estimated who ever hit it was going around 50-60 mph

            That car, if it isnt totalled, needs to be gotten rid of. You will never be happy with it if you get it fixed - it is amazingly difficult to straighten a car back out right and it isn't worth doing on such a cheap car as an Fbody.

              I know you probably hate hearing it, but scrap it and move on. That's one hell of a hit!

              You're most likely better off (and safer) driving it "as is" then letting Maaco touch it!

                Anything is "fixable", it might be easier just to find another bird.

                    I agree. Not worth it to straighten it out. Car will never be the same

                      we need more pictures, a straight on shot, it looks bad ( not fixable) but you cant tell from 3 pics. fixing a frame isnt as bad as everyone thinks, your'll be amazed at what you can do. but like others said, it may not be worth it.the roof/ttop area is what worries me. need more pics.

                        The Roof is fine, the only damage that seems apparent is the door, rocker panel, and the t top. The frame isnt bent,atleast not severly the passanger door opens fine which indicates that frame damage isnt substantial. How ever the gap in between the passanger door and the body is slightly larger, marginally how ever. Nobody seems to think the frame is bent who has seen the car. Its not really all that bad just the door took a substantial hit, tomorrow it gets taken to the body shop. Its not all bad though even if I have to scrap the Bird, Im getting an enlistment bonus from the Army that ranges from anywhere in between 10,000$ to 40,000$. If I get a decent bonus Ill be in a Cobra lol
