I bought this 1991 a couple months ago for $900 everything is fine just the front end is bent, which stops me from installing a light. If anybody out there has a way to unbend this please leave me a post. I'm not sure If this pic works but it worked on cardomain so I should be fine.

You can use a small hydraulic jack ($20 Walmart - 4 ton - about 10 inches in height x 3 1/2 diameter) just be carefull that you don't damage something else using it.

Allright, I'll try that, also somebody told me I should put a chain around it and tie it to a tree, slowly backing out, but I don't want to rip out my front end, thanks.

Can you post a pic of the entire front end? If it were me, i would take it to a shop. It might be close to $1000 if theres anymore damage that isnt shown on the pic.
