I got into a 3 car accident 3 days ago and wrecked my '96 T100. it didnt even hit 100k miles on the original engine, so i can't give her up yet. It still drives but not long due to the radiator being demolished. thats the only real mechanical damage... thank the lord.
i guess i will start with the pictures so you get an idea of the damage.

now... i dont have the money to fix this... i need to do the work myself.
im hoping that the frame will come out a bit when i pull the bumper so i can work out the metal.
i guess what im asking is... any suggestions on what to do?
thank you

Oh Man!! I feel for you dude! I smashed up my 97 SR5 T100 in the front. I have frame damage. Check for frame damage. That last pic looks bad, with the inner fender support bent up. I don't know if that can be fixed. I'm stripping my 97 down to nothing but the body and frame. I bought a 95 DX T100 with 273,000 miles on it. My 97 had 102,000, so I'm swapping the whole drive train, and interior into my 95. Go online like ebay and search for parts. Best I can do.

woah that def sucks. id would say you are better off keeping that for parts and finding an identical one. maybe one that needs a rear end or motor or something.
