    Depends on whether or not their is frame damage. The way that the wheel is bent in I would not gamble with this car. If it isnt totalled than I would say get it fixed and get rid of it ASAP.

      My rear bumper cost $795. And it really had nothing more than deep scratches in it. But I didn't pay for it.

      The way that wheel is bent, they just may total it. You probably have alot of suspension damage.

      That's how I lost my 94.

        Wow, let's see... new windsheild ~$400, every piece on the front of the car ~$4000 (depends on whether you buy things new or used), considering there's no frame damage and the way that wheel is bent I'd say no less than ~$1000 and that's being very modest. You're looking at around 5k, which is probably slightly lower than what the cars worth. I'm no autobody expert but it doesn't take one to see that that car is a mess. Personally I would look for something in working condition.
        I could be totally off with those numbers though. Maybe your best bet is to have some estimates done and base your decision from there.

          I wouldn't even bother with this car. Looks like a total loss. Not only does it have the obvious damage, but if the other side is the same, you need all new frt suspension pieces, tie rods, recon wheels alignment, frame set up and pull, replacement frt clip that includes fender reinforcements, Hood, hinges, lock support, latch, absorber, bumper reinforcements, rad. support, lamps, lower shield, splash shield, horn, etc. And on top of that AC evac and recharge and rad drain and fill to put in the rad support, resevoir, battery, sideskirt, mldgs, w/s, blend, R&Is.

            I bought a front clip and if u can find a complete front clip it should only cost you around 2g's. I got mine for 1g but it wasnt a complete front!! i didnt have to replace anything witrh suspension and stuff like that just body work! U mint have to pull the tower out which is 1g so its really your choice its not for us to decide!

                  It will cost you like 5,000 to fix it. Might be better to just buy a new car and sell that one to who ever will buy it.

                    Really man, I paid 5800 on ebay last year for mine. Its a 96. From the looks of your body style, its somewhere in that model, correct?
                    You may be able to part out the car on Ebay or somewhere like that and get enough to get into another one with some additional cash.
                    I'm really sorry about all of your troubles. Hope you can get things straightened out. I'll be sure to keep you in my prayers. This might seem like a dark time right now, but better days are ahead. Sometimes, we just have to go through hell to get to the other side. Blessings
