I am posting these for my son who had a fender bender. The question is who in Norcal can fix this and what will it cost? Car is otherwise very nice.

It is fixable, if the insurance Co tries to total it, don't let them. Buy it back if they do. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sawzall-smiley.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/welder.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smash.gif)

I am really sorry to hear that Patrick. Best of luck to you. I would try to fix it. Probably wouldn't pull it all out, but, well, start by pulled it out, then if you are not happy, cut out and replace only what is needed. Have alingment checked. most places should "check" for free.

Looks like the inner fender is nicked as well... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif)
Might be a job for McMark
It may need some tweeking on a rig. Scott Yeaman (Palo Alto) has one

Mark's friend Brandon does body work up in Napa. He did my silver car, but I don't think you ever saw it. Otherwise, Yeaman auto body in Palo Alto, but he's considerably pricier. Scott does awesome work though. Well worth the money, if you have it!

My son was driving on Bollinger Canyon Road a week after I bought the car for him and according to him a lady that was parked on the shoulder pulled out onto the roadway just as he was passing by and clipped him.
I saw pix of you car post-crash Jenny and that was what got me to thinking about McMark and Brandon. I would think any body shp can fix it (for sure Yeoman's), but I am trying to keep the cash within the club!

From the looks of the pictures and knowing that new fenders run about $1600, I would think that the repair would cost between $2500-3000. Sorry to hear about the problem. I hate to see that.

I have a pretty good fender on a '76 you can have if you want to come to Bakersfield and cut it off.
