The passenger side is crushed pretty well. Without taking it apart, you really won't know the full damage though. I had a similar accident that required a LOT of work to fix the car. It seems that this one is not as bad as the previous though... it looks like the Strut Tower Brace that I put in after the first wreck actually kept most of the damage in the front half of the engine bay. But like I said, you never really know til you break it down. I do know the alignments on the door, etc is pushed back...

The last accident I had was very similar. I bought a donor car for real cheap that had never been wrecked, and the shop chopped off the passenger side front "frame rail" and did a damned good job welding the donor parts in. The same may be needed for this car, if this car is to be fixed. That's why I've had the car sitting for about 4-5 years now.
