hey i need a couple of opinions

hey every one my name is steve i own an 88 irocz with t-tops it has a 305 tpi. what i need help with is i had sent it into a ditch like a moron and screwed up the frame a little and put a huge dent in the floor.
the car has 151000 miles on it but still runs like a beast. i mean i run the **** outa it. love it to death but i think it needs way too much work and a guy has offerd me 1500 cash for it.

ok now what are some suggestions.
how hard would it be to find another 88 irocz with t-tops with a damn straight body and frame and undercarage for a reasonable price?

you can:
take the cash
find out what it needs and the cost
find another car
find a donor car and swap your engine and drive train into it

well ive thought of that but the frame is a bit messed up there is a monster dent on the floor from the concrete post i landed on and the pretty much the whole undercarage is screwed. the mmotor is acting up it has 154 000 (read it wrong yesterday) and has a loud tick going. i think i am going to go ahead and take the money i found another 88 iroc on e bay but who knows how the internet goes
