| That's a shame but it doesn't look like it hit the frame. Perhaps that's why the airbag didn't deploy. Anyway, a donor front cap may save that wagon. | |

| Greg is right honeybunnyii about your wagon looking pretty fixable.Insurance companies just total these cars for any damage because of their age and the difficulty in finding parts in a timely manner.Doesnt look like a real hard hit to me either. Jim |

| Hi HBii
I really like your new wagon. Love the color combination. Looks like the new wagon's antenna does not work. If the old one is good, swap it. Parting out is OK, I did the same to a wagon. Now I have a cellar full of parts. You may want to sell it as is and be done with it.
I would be surprised if the frame is not damaged. That is a pretty good hit.

| Yikes! That DOES look like a hard hit.
The new wagon surely looks like it needs some window tint! Glad the old one kept you safe. |

| I love the Dark Cherry Metallic with wood. going to guess a burgandy interior. If it were me I would pull some of the hard to replace parts (like the sail panels, wheel caps, tail lights, etc) off the old car and sell it for the engine/trans as LT1s still command a bood dollar. So if you are selling it as a motor then you can strip all the good stuff and still get your oney out. DOn't know how much you are into that though, but many of the parts are not manufactured so they may come in handy. If you do part it out I'm myself and the other vultures here will be interested in some parts | |

| Sure is a beautiful wagon HB.You said you have a mechanic who can pull parts for you?Also do you have a place to store these parts safely and out of the weather?We can gladly give a very complete list of which parts to pull and hoard due to their limited availability and the fact that you may need a few of these parts in the future for that beauty sitting in your driveway.

| It's a high hit,. not too bad really,did the rad get whacked?. if you want to save it, just put a complete front clip on it,. probably not too hard to find a white woody front clip,. I doubt the frame got touched

| It looks like you need a front PS door too. White is the most popular color, so there should be a good supply of used parts. I agree with Nick a front clip is in order. You will probably be in up to the core support. I would have the frame checked, but it may be fine. You probably got the radiator, and condenser. A used clip can include all of those parts, if you have someone to pull it.
Where are you located? Someone local may be willing to help out. | |

| Sorry about the old wagon, but the new one looks great! I own a DCM woodie myself and love the color combo. | |
