So professional review gave great news really, the top diagonals are fine and underneath the impact only damaged the chassis rails from the bend in this pic forward.
Behind that the engine x-mem is fine and the trans tunnel is also fine.
I'm still in 2 minds with what to do however. To repair it would need donor or new tie rail, new front d/side guard, front beaver(???), bumper, d/side castor rod mount and g/box x/member. Also the rust in the roof would ideally need to be fixed.
TBH it looks like it will require more effort than I'm prepared to put in as I've got the 120Y to daily while I build up the 200BSSS and the Mrs is reluctant to have yet another car in the yard
Hopefully by the end if the weekend I'll have made a decision,
If I decide to sell the shell it will be minus diff, fuel system (pumps, surge tank etc, cables for battery relocation to boot) and a few other bits, and if that fails to sell then I'll part it out but its still a big IF.
I'd really like to get this girl goin again.
The smash repair dude (Graeme) reckoned it would be an easy enough fix if you had the bits, so yeah I'll keep y'all posted.
A massive thanks to all who've helped out!!!
Also big props to Graeme from Civic smash Repairs who is a great bloke and also drives a 1200 ute, he showed me how he was doing everything and talked me through the repairs required, that and he came over after business hours to look it over. Mad Carnt, I recommend him to everyone!!!
Cheers, Jon
