It looks like a carbed 302. Sorry to hear about your car bro. At least you can save yourself the labor by repairing it yourself.

yep, its true, i save some money and the jow will be decent =) but, the problem is that no one want his car damaged. im sad for this, because you know that a crash involve some damages to the car's eye and its a problem to align it !!

Looking at the pictures, it doesn't look like the frame is damaged at all. That's good.

I like the picture you drew of the crash in Microsoft Paint.

I went to Mexico last year for vacation. Isn't $150 a LOT in pesos? Maybe you can buy some new stuff for your car.
