Frame damage

[cjsmith]

Estimate = $3900. Down to maybe $2900 if I take used doors and fender, but the labor alone is nearly $2K and that's more than Kelly says the car's worth. If I make the case that it's in pristine condition with very low miles, AND I take used doors, AND I don't paint them, the math error fairy would still need to cough up $500.

This is mainly a gratuitous icon post.

Thinking of other Corollas helping keeping mine in better shape, I have:
- pulled (from a pick'n'pull yard) a side & rear view mirror, battery tie down rod, navy blue plastic covers for rear seat belt anchors, small air duct, navy blue dashboard, & wheel rim. [I just need to get around to installing most of this -- the battery tie down & wheel rim are the only bits in place.]
- been given a Toyota radio (from friends who upgraded theirs)
