Batto, can you take a pic of the front end from a more lower level? Basically, a shot from like the ground looking up into the damaged area. I need to see how the frame rail looks. If that is not creased, then all you need are the aprons and upper rail plus radiator support from the other car, then youre set.

I hope. But remember price to fix will be steep, you may even be able to buy another clean chassis for that price bro.

It looks like you wont be able to make the two bad cars one unless you drill out all the welds on the front ends and re-weld everything.

DO IT! If you can even get it for 2gs its still cheaper than repair costs.

What you should do is but that car. And since you have 2 240's put all those parts into that one.

replacing a radiator support is not hard by any means, ive done it on several hondas.

but if the upper frame area is bent at all it might not be worth messing with...

The driver side upper rail and aprons are trashed, the radiator support is the easiest to fix, but yeah, its beyond repair in that area.
