The time on the frame machine without removing anything will give you a the information you need to make a decision on weather the car can be fixed, and exactly what will be needed. As the doors are sprung and won't go back in the hole you may have to make a tuff decision on weather it can be saved. There is certainly the technology to fix these cars today, it's just a matter of the dollars required. Thankfully I have never been as unfortunate as this, but I would have to ask myself if I would ever be happy with the car again. I have had an occasion with a car less than a year old that was in a serious accident but it wasn't 75% of the value and it was fixed. I wasn't happy and didn't feel comfortable in it and traded it less than a month after getting it back.Exactly... First time that happens is the frame rack..
That was what I was considering for my '70 XH Charger.no need to talk

ElDubb 440 said that if my doors opened and closed normally, the main structure of the car is fine and to just cut off the bent stuff and slip the replacement stuff in.
See my thread:
"Lookie what $5000 buys you."
Man that sucks!! GET A LAWER!!
I'll get one in the morning DennisGod Bless you. Get healed. I’ve had close calls, so far been lucky. Any full car pictures or pics of the truck for us?
Roof aint buckled but driver door won't shut think it flew open on impactwow..... you're lucky to be alive.........that thing is hurt bad, post up some more pics if you can.......the cowl, firewall, and hinge pillar has got to be stuffed pretty good and the roof likely buckled
This has me thinking about the situation I came across recently, where a cop walked up
to me at a convenience store while I was in my '68 GTX.
He said he'd seen me come in and wanted to know why I wasn't wearing my seat belt -
which of course I had been (lap belt only in the GTX).
After a quick education lesson for the cop, he went on his merry way.
But it got me thinking...
I wonder if my car even has the anchor welded into the roofline to add the shoulder belt?
When did the shoulder belts become even an option on these cars and did they all have the
anchor as part of the body even if the car wasn't optioned for one?
You did it again.....don't do that!Hey cranky locked up the brakes couldn't stop in time hit him at about 55 mph
