inner fenders are welded in, i'd say that car is done for and you should just move on--be cheaper to just swap parts over to a roller car with a title
You would at least have to put a front clip on that car to save it, that would be cutting off the frame rails right before the strut towers and weld on the new one, but honestly like xpndbl3 said it would be cheaper to get a roller and out your stuff into it.

Sucks dude... Id have to agree with them tho ,shes totalled.Even if you did get everything cut and put back into place , the chances of it ever driving the same are little to none.

damn unfortunatly it is worse then it looks... but the good news is the whole car is salvageable except for the rad, battery, and headlights forward.. the rest of the car is untouched.
buy a new one and swap over whatever parts you'd like... keep the rest for parts. even the engine and front passenger side tire/rim are untouched, surprisingly!
luckily the truck didn't get damaged either!

I hope Katrina burns in hell for that one..........
I agree with everyone else though. Get a new camaro and just build it meaner and stonger.

Theoretically you could just switch the vin plates and all that stuff onto the donor car and pretend it's your first one... theoretically of courrse.
