Thanks, I will keep it in mind. Still compiling price list and sadly it seems more and more like replacement is smartest move. Still on the fence tho. How much did you want without shipping? I will check local for freight cost.

It's a really sad story

At least, nobody was injured and the car is still repairable.

I hope you've got a good insurance

I've had a small accident with mine many years ago and I still remember how sad I was...

Sorry for the misfortune and good luck for the rebuild.
