Well I acquired a friends wrecked SRT-4 Neon for one hell of a deal about 2 weeks ago. I am actually thinking about repairing it. Any idea on how much it would cost to just fix the structural damage on the unibody? Doesn't have to be perfect and there can be gaps in the fender/hood area. Just want it to be within spec and not eat up tires. Its 1'' shorter from each strut tower lengthwise, compared to my silver one. So the drivers side strut tower got pushed in a bit. Quick vid I made of the damage: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lcoa-6H1bFA Impact! Looks fine on this side: Front fascia just has a small crack in it, I took it off though.
The problem is where's it bent ,by cutting that section out and replacing it won't be safe to drive cause it's the structal damage and I'm guessing it was totaled correct
Yes it was totaled due to everything that had to be replaced for it to be like new again. $$$$$ I am just curious how much it would be to fix the structural damage because I can acquire everything else for cheap. Does it really need to be cut out? Are you talking about where it says "replace" I made this thread to see if anyone could give me a rough estimate... if its even possible without seeing it in person.
Yea where it says replace cause there really isn't any way to hook that up to a frame puller and it also looks like it pushed in the whole strut tower and maybe the firewall
I didn't look around the firewall area yet. I will check that out. Probably will take off the cowl too.
Looks like most of that will roll back out. I'm not sure about the $ for a shop in your area but it looks like less than a days work.
it doesnt look that bad to me. im with ABM. i dont think it would take a shop that long to strighten it back out. heck i fixed my totaled neon my self.
