Wow, that really sucks!  But IMHO - I wouldn't WANT a car with $4300+ worth
of body damage/repair - especially one that would be hard pressed to bring
that much if sold in cherry condition.

If I were in your position, I'd buy it back for next to nothing and part
EVERYTHING out of it.. then begin a quest for the perfect replacement.  They
ARE out there, you just have to beat the bushes real hard..  :D

Good luck whichever way you move forward.
