Sorry about the accident. Hope you find the parts and get it fixed soon as I would hate to have either my Cuda or Challenger down.

What does the damage to the inner fender look like? can you post it? I lost a car that way to a younger kid years ago. I had a flashing yellow light, he had flashing red and never even slowed down. Hit the LF corner. I have a K frame, and control arms if needed, but i cant help on the fender or grille. You will also want to have that put on a frame machine.

Thanks everyone. Tried to get some sleep overnight, got a little. Not feelin it at all, ol fish was a tank and took the hit. Poor guy. Looks like it will get band-aided so its mobile to get on the transport truck to florida so we can get it fixed right there. It will come back better than before, probably all new brakes and suspension. It will still stay lemon twist. i'll be rounding up parts as soon as i figure out what i need.

That sucks, man. Glad to hear that you're alright, and good luck with the repairs.
