totalled or still worth fixing?!?!?!?
well about 4 months ago i bought this beautiful 86 4runner with no rust and nothing wrong with it except it needed a driver...
today it broke my heart when some jerk ran me off the road and i cant decide weather to consider it totaled or fix it any advice?
P.S. its pretty bad

As long as the frame does not need to be pulled.
Like any thing It can be fixed but time and costs are the deciding factor.
If you had no skills and had to pay to have it done it would not be worth it.
I say used parts radiator support**, inner fender and fender.
Going with a new all metal radiator
** I had repaired one some what like this I decided to just straighten the radiator support. After it was all done I kicked my self for not putting one in for what it is worth.
Good luck!!
Just curious did you get a piece of the other vehicle. Or just as my insurance agent says drive off the road and have a crash by yourself
