1992 Mazda Navajo Collision repair

My dad was involved in a accident last month in his 1992 Mazda Navajo. He walked away from the accident with out a scratch, though his poor Navajo did not fair as well.. Keep in mind this Navajo would be totaled. The value a body shop would charge to do this repair would be in the $1000s. I've estimated this to be about $800-$900 for me to repair.

So my good friend Justin, towed the Navajo to me in Austin, tx where I will do all the body work and put this Navajo back to like new condition.

There was steering damage, and core support damage/passenger side inner fender damage.

Lucky for me I found this at the local wrench a part.

Based on my other projects and my own full time job I plan to have the Navajo completed in June. Only part I am lacking now is a passenger fender. I will also paint the hood both fenders and both doors.
