Need opinions, plz read!

Ok so a month ago I wrote a thread about my horrible accident
well, I got my car back and I dont know wether or not to keep her...I mean I dont know if it will be worth it.I apologize for no pics but when I get a chance I will defenatly post them.So, basicly I need new suspension,body work,and I dont know how good the tranny is because the day of the accident I had had to force in the gears in. Well, there is an awesome website
http://www.prostreetonline.com/ ...and I found parts with great prices! So I estimate my car would probably cost $5-7,000 to fix but even then I wont know the condition of the tranny.PLZ I need some opinions i mean I really love this car but I dont know.OR I could strip her and sell her parts but I dont have the heart to do that.I apriciate any feedbacks!

Will everything be covered by insurance?

They can do amazing things with body work today and so cosmetics wouldn't be my biggest concern.

Transmission is one...are you still under factory warranty?

Sad to say, it's probably not worth it to fix. Salvage it for what ever you can get and buy another one for the same $7K. Once a car has been whacked badly enough it'll never be the same.

Your car will be worth nothing once its fixed so plan on driving it for a while.

yeah. take the money from insurance and buy another car. this car is definitely not worth it if its gonna cost that much to fix it. plus u'll have a hard time selling it for a decent price after the repairs.

Yeah everyone is right...thanx for the opinions fellas I will be selling parts in the black market links on this site so if anyone is interested plz feel free to contact me. I tried the gears of the tranny and they went in no problem but when it was on the day of the accident the gears didnt want to go in...I had to force them in and I dont have factory warranty on it.
