still, it can be fixed
keep it. My 97 has frame damage in the front. Hit hard, the car tracks and drives just fine. Ive had 2 new 98's and it rides as well as those cars with the damage and 110k.
It'll NEVER drive the same again.
Buy a 4v cobra/mach and you'll be really content.

Will post pics tn.
Sorry to hear about your car. I'm confused. Would you post tragic pics of your best friend if he had a horrible accident and died?
Remember her the way she should be remembered. Let her pass with dignity.
\As far as the never driving the same, thats a load of crap. I had a race car that got wrecked, bent the frame in a complete 90 degree.. SOOO many people wrote the poor thing off that it would never ever win a race again, so I took it to the shop and used a frame correction machine.. the first race back out on the track I won.. i won about 50 races with it there after with my "bent up" crappy frame circle track car.. So thats a load.. if you find a good shop that can bend it back right, go for it. Think about all the old mustangs with the rusted up frame rails that are fixed, and how they are now on the road? I'm pretty sure Unique motorsports and shelby wouldn't be putting out fastbacks left and right if all of them were completely toast and didnt drive right.. theres to much to the contrary to prove that they can be in fact fixed correctly.

Whatever helps you sleep at night
You bend/tweak the frame, it's going to drive differently. You may not feel or notice the difference, but it's there. The geometry of the frame is weakened once it's bent and fixed. Your wining races has nothing to do with this conversation

often extensively repaired cars are BETTER than new since a good technician can get tolerances much closer than they were from the assembly line
it will never be as strong as it once was. thats a fact.

I'll remember that the next time I'm pulling my 40 foot sea ray with my mustang. The car will rust to pieces before any weakness is exposed if the damage is deemed repairable.
