hey guys, it's been awhile since i've been on here, but I figured since I might not be a mustang owner soon I might as well get a few last opinions. I lost control of my 2001 vortech supercharged gt vert and jumped a curp into a ditch at about 35 mph. The front bumper ripped off and the radiator and frame support around it (crossmember? not sure of the name) were bent back. The tires and one rim was also damaged. Motor runs fine and there is not drivetrain damage, and airbags were not deployed. The only thing I would need to get this thing streetable again is a radioator that doesnt leak, and probably a new crossmember. Unfortunatley due to the "frame damage" it was deemed totalled. However I have the option of cancelling the claim with allstate and still keeping a clear title. Should I fix this myself, or would yall not around with frame work? I am pretty mechanically savy, I installed the supercharger myself and my brother can weld which may help with the crossmember. I absoutly love this car it makes 450hp and has one of a kind paint. I also have the option of taking $6,900 for the car, then I am able to buy it back with a salvage title for 800 bucks. I know I could sell it with the supercharger for way more than 800 in craigslist. How hard is would it be to fix the radiator and frame? Or should I just cut my losses and take the money? If I take the money, what could I get for 6,900 plus whatever I could sell the car for? I'm so confused. I really want to fix it. Any ideas? Thanks so much for any reply's in advance!
