Yeah that can be striaghtend. That frame is in much better shape than mine was when I purchased it. My buddy straightend mine for $600. As you can see in my signature, my frame rails were bent at 90 degree angles.

Anything can be fixed, it is just at what cost.

Good Luck!

I'm surprised you guys think the cost is 7-10K in misc parts and labor since he already has nearly all the major components.

I'm not an expert but with the damage I've seen and experienced I would guess for an additional $2-3K on top of the parts you already have for necessary labor, paint, and misc parts.

Ok, well just let me clarify since everyone keeps bashing me on this. Insurance already paid up, and im buying a new S, and since i have the fender s, bumpers, etc. i also have the rear subframe, and yes im gonna do everything possible myself. And i dont need the car repainted, All i want to KNOW IS IF ITS GONNA COST ALOT TO JUST PULL THE FRONT BACK. thats it.

if you can pull off your tower bar then the cost of pulling the frame shouldnt cost all that much.

I estimated 7-10k from start to finish. 7k is a conservative figure. Just to clarify, although he may have some, or most of the required parts, nonetheless, 7-10k from start to finish.

Hope everything goes well Andy.
