Can it be fixed? (body work)

[95_Gt]

looking at a mustang that someone is selling local.it was hit in the front and i believe the frame is bent.I took some pics of it and was wondering would it be worth trying to fix or is it a parts car?they are selling it pretty cheap.

here are some pics of the damage

if theres no frame damage, you should be able to just buy a core support

Yeah, it just looks like the core support, and the bumper mount. How was the gap between the hood and both front fenders and fender to the door gaps?

the gap between fender and hood was not bad but the fender to the door is.here are two pics

well, anything is "fixable" However, looking at the door to fender gap, looks very UNpromising.

How much is he asking for it? Price you can get it for might depend on how much you want to spend to get it fixed.

fender probably got pushed back some. The thing you need to be careful of is unibody twist.

right thats what im afraid of.I guess the person lost control on the hwy and hit a semi.

[pOrk]

The car is worht 700 either way, easily part it out for 3 times that.

If you have to pay for the work, your looking at about $3000 minimum to get it done right

Unless the frame is twised up. That number could easily double.

[BAD LS1]

That is kinda fucked, the front bumper support is killed, thats attached right to the rails... the frame will need work because of that at minimum. There is alot more damage than what meets the eye no doubt. Bags deployed too?

Looks like an easy fix for my shop. Let me know if you don't buy it.

[Red97GTP]

the frame is bent. the reinforcement that attaches to the left frame rail is swayed pretty bad. it can be fixed though. id still buy it. wether you fix it or not its still a good deal.

buy it and then buy a V6 and use the GT as a donor car. I bet the damage goes all the way back pass the fire wall.

thanks for the advice everyone.But it looks like the guy wants 1200 all of a sudden.So, im just going to pass.If any of you want the number,pm me and ill send you the number.

I think it needs to be put on a frame puller. If the asking price is over a 1000 bucks walk away from the deal.You can by that car for 3 g's in great shape

[Waver]

not worth 3g's however it can be fixed.....or parted
