bad luck with my new car
so i recently purchased a 95 ex with 82k miles
2 weeks after i got it i was coming home with a friend and a guy in a truck
was driving on the wrong side of the road and i avoided hitting him and hit a wall,
it took chunks out of the front and back passenger side rims, put a big crease on the quarter panel(1 foot long), ripped off the trim on the door, bent the fender, and the crossmember in the rear.
after i checked out the damage i saw the crossmember was creased and now the rear tire has positive camber. The car alignment is really messed up cause the car kept swerving back and forth like the front was going one way and the back another
i want to know will it be worth fixing or should i just try and find another shell
and swap everything over
my friend tells me the car will never ride the same again and i shouldnt even bother????
i will try and post pics for you guys to see

fixing all the dents on the whole car
crossmember
paint the whole car

i understand what your saying but thier is just alot of family things going on right now and we dont have money to buy another car since we just paid cash for this one
my dad lost his job
i just got my car hit a deer the and next day
my sisters 2000 civic got stolen
now my car is wrecked
its just hard to find a shell in decent enough condition to just swap everything over
all the shells i have looked at are P.O.S
