Ok buddys 97 cobra was in an accident. (kicked it sideways and it gripped and sent him into a parked blazer) air bags went off ****ed the front end up, but still ran (had 7 cyl because a plug wire broke or somethin)

Anyways car ran when it went to the body shop (bro in laws garage )
Didnt start when it came out.

Buddies got the mechanical parts for it, and is trying to get it back running to get it on the road again. He has the radiator/fan out and the airbags are still blown on it. Got 1 new coil for the messed up one.

Now for the issues.
1. No spark at either coil. Like I said it ran before, and after the crash. He drove it on a flatbed and onto a trailer, drove it around bro in laws driveway before bodywork. We checked the camshaft sensor, crankshaft sensor, rechecked the grounds on the radiator support, still nothin.
2. His ABS light stays ON all the time. Ever with the car off, the keys in his pocket, the ABS light is still on, and he cant figure that out.

Any ideas?? Im a chevy guy but I miss hearing this whip!

My GM mechanic buddy said it sounds like a bad ground somewhere, which is why we rechecked the grounds that we found ( 3 on rad. support) they were painted underneath so we took em off scuffed up the metal and removed the paint, and reinstalled. Didnt see any other ones
