go get a 3.4 roller, or something, it would take some time, but you already have the necessary hardware, oh and the way he hit, make sure he didnt shear the wiring harness that runs acrossthe front.

not that much work aslong as your parts are good, did you not report the engine work to the insurance company?
As soon as i got my now motor in that is one of the first things I did was take all receipts to the insurance company and have them cover it.

Glad to hear that your dad is ok. Fully expect the insurance company to total it. You can either buy it back, fix it, and get it re-inspected to get rid of the salvage title, or just buy it back and rank the good parts.
Alternatively, you might try showing the insurance company your pile of receipts and see if they will fix it. They probably won't, but I have heard of some instances where it has happened.

damn man... glad no one was seriously hurt... but what a wacky looking hit.... the way that the fender is buldging id almost garantee there is radiator support and appron/headlight bucket damage... deff some structurural damage in the front there on top of what you see... if the rear was bad they would prob put a used one it and that wouldnt be to expensive... the 1/4 as said is expensive to replace especially on fbodys they are extra PITA..... its probably goint to total... id buy it back and get a doner car for the body and part the rest out... P.S. if he hit the wall hard enough to sheer the axel right off and crack the rotor and stuff there is probably some unibody damage under the car from the shifting rear.... just some stuff to take into consideration.... again sorry this happened... but who knows sometimes good things come out of bad situations..... just think positive man...
