As the title says.. spun out, blew out a tire, hit a tree. all on the driver rear quarter panel. What should i do? part out and move on? or move it to another shell? What would you guys really do?

there's no question that the body is absolutely done for. as most rb owners know, it's a lot to invest in an rb car. would you guys ever just cut your losses and move on?

If all the damage is on the quarter panel, find another shell. The engine and all the parts that matter are intact still aren't they?

You should be able to find another shell for about 800-1500 if your looking for a s13. There would be no way i would ever just cut my loses but if it was me i would look for a z32,r32 or a datsun shell

A shell for 800? A tow truck guy down here was trying to sell a rustless and 100% stock 92' coupe to me for 700. Only bad thing about it was a brown interior and it was auto.
