found a 98 cavy 2 door loaded with 2.4 and auto trans. 60k miles. front end damage. looking to rebuild it but seems there is a problem. when the guy hit he bent the bumper support and then about 4 inches back bent the frame on one side. is this fixable? how hard? he only wants like $400 for it i wanted to fix it to drive to work and stuff to keep miles off my 04 cav. if you can help please do

well, I would imagine you may be able to find a shop with a frame-straightener. Any good body shop should have one. Even if not, you could part out the car for much more than the 400 easily, so I would say get it, see if it's fixable, and if not, make some cash.
