S14 Fixable?

[S14Gavin]

Hey Zilvia, my 240 was unfortunately hit by a drunk driver this past weekend. Some people are telling me it's fixable and others are telling me to just buy another shell. So I figured i'd post something on here hoping to get some feedback from knowledgeable s-chassis owners. If fixable i'd appreciate some advice on what steps to take. If not maybe someone out there has a rolling s14 shell for sale in California. Thank you for any responses ahead of time

Is that wheel knocked further in? Frame damage?

The wheel doesn't seem to be pushed in but it is angled as if it had a large amount of negative camber.

Did it snap the arm off the subframe, it looks as if it did. If that's the case and you want to not junk the car you need to first make sure it rolls straight, then go from there on whether or not to toss it on a frame rack.

There's no excuse for safety, definitely make sure it's okay to drive and rolls properly first.

I'm seeing at a minimum, quarter panel, rocker panel, rear suspension, door, and whatever support there is under the sheet metal. Might be cheaper just to find a shell that hasn't been smacked in the ass or side.

That thing is done. Have your insurance salvage it and do your research to get top dollar for a payout. Then buy it back from your insurance company and part it out to make some extra $$$. Then get a fresh clean chassis.

That's a boat load of cash to get that car straight and back on the road. I don't think your frame is bent, but your subframe is most likely damaged pretty badly. Take a picture from the back and underneath so we can see suspension components.

Junk it and start over
