Fix, Sell, Part out Wrecked my 98 Stang Need Information

Guys I need to get some advice. As you can see from the pictures my 98 mustang v6 was wrecked. Is it worth fixing? or should I sell it or part it out? It has a salvage title and when it is fixed I can get a R title for it. It wasn't hit that hard, but i don't know what I should do.

The car will need to be put on a frame machine. As the right side is pushed back a little under 1/2". (compared measurements to my other stang) The door post is straight as can be. But, the outer sheet metal is pushed in at the bottom where the door hinge bolts on. See pic's. The drivers side is still straight and the door shuts like it should. So i know the car isn't twisted. Front rails and radiator support are straight.

What do you think it is worth how it sets? When fixed?

If anyones interested in it let me know.

Unless you plan on replacing the roof, and have acess to a frame machine, it might be to costly to fix. Might want to also check the front suspension parts, as it looks like it was hit on the front tire some...

Take it to a good frame shop, if they say the frame is OK or easily fixable than I'd say fix it. If not, to the mustang graveyard!
