Need more pics. At first glance it doesn't look too bad.
New front support, new hood, new fenders, new bumper, new headlight(s) and you're done (possibly, we need to see more).

As long as the frame isnt hurt (looks like he got hit high) could just weld in a front rad support from a scrap car. Even the quarter panels look redeemable and the hood didnt break the windshield.
So maybe get away with just rad support, hood ,front bumper, radiator, and maybe a headlight cant quite see. If sourced properly and you do the labor yourself its doable, that being said needs better pictures.

Re: Worth fixing or no?
That's very fixable.My advice would be to take it to a collision shop and pay for a couple of hours of frame straightening. Get them to measure it and straighten the rails out of they're swayed over. The rest is pretty easy. It's good practice to pull the rad support back out to more or less where it was before removing it in case anything attached to it was shoved back, pulling it will bring it back into place. You can literally tie a strap to a tree and back up to do this if you're sensible.

And it looks like the passenger side has a sectioned gap that they didn’t bother filling.
who knows how much other garbage hacks have been performed. Not worth it in my opinion.

That's definitely been smashed and fixed before, but it can be fixed. Like I said take to a collision shop and pay for a little frame time to get it straight, then you can cut out and replace the rad support yourself.
